balunz they're nice for a record of what you'd seen, but do suffer from oversaturation in #1, poor contrast in #2, some distracting things in #3 and not sure what to make of #4.

I do appreciate you shoot in quite oppressive conditions, I've just passed by your country myself, so keep at it and focus on shooting the one subject up close and try to frame the shot to avoid distracting background features in the image.

The problem is the combination of harsh sunlight and the shadows it can have cast on your subjects from trees or other tall objects in the sun's path.

#2 has both very bright areas in the background, and dark areas in the subject of the photo. This is a difficult task for the camera to handle for you. It is simply not optimal conditions to take a photo. But as it is, you either take it and have something, or don't take it and don't have any photo of the scene.
