You should really be saying you like the composition and not the crop. It's using photographic terminology better.

Nobody has any tips to remove the harsh light or something. I like to see the picture improved. And any tips in pp are welcome!

That why whey i shoot i rather under expose the image rather than to blow out my highlights. Once you blow your highlights there is no way to recover detail. Specially in image 1 the best thing would be to move the subject into a shaded area or try to diffuse the sunlight. I don't thing there is a way to fix image 1 when it come to the lighting composition is good. As far as the rest of the images love #3 her look is stunning with a lil PP that picture is money. =)

So most people like #3 the most. What can I do to make the photo less soft and maybe there is some work to do on the colors?

The image looks more 'real' and sharper.
