I know he is out of focus I was more or less trying to get them both in focus, I should have tried more to get him in instead of her, but aside from that?
I know this one is a little too dark around the face but I felt a flash might have been over kill?

Try shooting from a lower angle. Otherwise you are giving a standard "here's an animal on the ground" shot.
And maybe move in a little closer. The background in these shots is not interesting and should be minimized.
Otherwise the shots have OK exposure and focus. A little flash might help. Can you set the exposure compensation on your flash seperately from the film exposure? Many people set the flash output about 1 to 2 stops less than the film exposure. That way the flash just barely lights up some of the shadowy areas without overwhelming the image.

no, my camera doesn't have a macro flash, just the usual, it does have an attachment for a macroflash(the camera is a minolta QTSi110 I believe SLR 35-80 mm lens), I usually dont use a flash because I dont want to white everything out..
the angle was because of where the shots were taken, there was a barrier in my way so I would have had to of set my camera down and hope they were in focus to get a level shot, but I do understand what you were saying.
thanks
