Removed the distracting blob in the upper left corner.
Pumped up the colors. Increased contrast.
Good depth-of-field to make only a portion in focus. Makes you question exactly what it is

Blurry.
Should have shot in speed priority mode to make the lens open/close much quicker to freeze the leaf in the wind.

Distracting background.
Might me able to clone lawn, but would take a lot of work.

Interesting idea, but ultimately it doesn't work.
Maybe if there were more sod squares visible and you could see the patchwork.
Now, there's nothing which says, "This is where you should be looking."

Narrow depth-of-field is good...Some flowers in focus, background ones are blurred.
But the photo's not all that interesting to look at. Needs to have a single focal point of interest.
Tried cropping to help focus interest, but it still doesn't really work.

Too busy. Needs a single focus point to tell the story. I thought the juxtaposition between the yucca flower and the helmet would be interesting when I shot it. But, it's not great after the fact.

Interesting composition, but, again, not particularly interesting. The stairs are distracting and there too few floats to make it visually interesting.

Good composition with lion tucked in behind the urn.
But lighting is too bright and boring.
Could be saved with photoshop.

The bug ball on the tree was a more interesting photo to me.

Maybe with the edges cropped and the exposure brightened, it could be more welcoming.

Maybe cropped, and sharpened, this could be interesting.
