In the second photo there is a lot of contrast. For the first photo I think there is some contrast there too. It follows the rule of thirds. It has more of a sentimental feeling for me though. More that half of my family is from Rwanda. In Rwanda they speak Swahilli. You can see in that photo the sign says "Karibu". Karibu means "welcome" in swahilli. "welcome" is also on the sign. This sign to me represents my connection to my sisters. The thirds photo has a lot of colour contrast. The last photo has colour contrast as well in the table cloth. Also in the last photo there is composition. Also the last photo I feel is the most symmetrical photo. The pattern in the middle of the photo is very intricate and symmetrical.
