First photo-- amazing. Don't change a thing. I love the subtle dark lines surrounding the bright glowing green leaves.

Second photo could use a little more exposure, as it is too dark to really enjoy the bright colors of the towel or the fine details of the turtle. I'm guessing you were using your camera's automatic light metering, which was thrown off by the bright glare of the overhead sun reflecting off of the shiny shell of the turtle, causing the camera to think there was much more light coming in than it actually had. You could have solved this by using exposure compensation or just setting the exposure manually.

I love the third photo because of the awesome sense of scale. Laura looks massive hovering over the tiny turtle, and the low angle of the photo almost makes us feel like we're down there with the turtle staring up at her.
