Help me which, if any, I should submit. They allow up to four submissions for judging, so anywhere from all to none can go through. Thanks!

EDIT: the last two may be overcropped and the quality of the originals is much higher for both.

I'll try and add a couple more later.

the bee one is much better than the browning blades of grass one IMO.

Yeah, I wish I had found a better looking subject, but I figured it was worth a try.

teh flower one - the flower is not big enough in size or in the frame overall IMO. The barn is nice in teh BG, but the OOF seems almost a PS creation more than a lens effect.

I wish I could do that in PS. I think I had the f/ around 5. The barn was probably 100 feet away while the foreground was only was a few feet.

I like the one with the bee. There is nothing to make the grass special in the second shot. In the third shot, there is not enough in the foreground, so it looks like you forgot to focus. It could work if you included more flowers, but then it would be almost like the first one.

Thanks for the input! I didn't really think about not having enough in the foreground in third shot. There are so many things to keep in mind when composing a shot!

yeah, the first one definitely looks best. However, I think you mybe doing too much saturation on color and not enough contrast, mostly on the last two.
