This was one of my four 9's . I like the DOF and it is fitting to your title with some yellow and red hints on the trees. Makes me wish for autumn's arrival.

Oh this is wonderful. I like the smooth complexion (neat image?) Her hair in the wind and her cute smile is really nice. It doesn't feel posed at all. Nicely done.

The low wide angle viewpoint works esp. well here, but the dark edges (from editing?) around the people's heads is a bit strange looking. Comp could be stronger (the person cut in half on the right is a bit bothersome) and the lack of happy expressions doesn't exactly shout out the theme of celebration, but all in all a good effort. Exposure is excellent for a tough lighting situation~
