Vileoxidation needs your help!!

Alright, so I am entering some of my photography work into this contest at my school, mainly because if I can win it I can get a shot at a $10,000 prize.

The problem is that the reason I never submit my work anywhere is because I have a special affinity for all of it and can't choose what to submit! There is a limit of five photos per entrant, so I have to narrow this album, which is the one I decided to use, down to five pictures.

So, I would love you guys forever if you could check this album out and leave a comment here with your favorites. They are scaled down unless you click them, but if you have a slower connection you may not want to attempt it - though for all I know it could work perfectly well even on slower connections.

The album is here, click on the picture there to get to it: Picasa Web Albums - vileoxidation

They each have names under them to reference them with. (As you can see, all my creativity goes into taking the pics, and not naming them!)

Here are a couple of teasers just so you guys don't think this is totally worthless for me to attempt. These are scaled down a bit so it won't take forever if you want to click them.

P.S. Go to the album to see them all, these probably aren't the best, they are just so you guys know that I am not completely wasting your time.

2nd one.

Pink Tree #3
Pink & White #3
Orange & White #11
Purple Flower #6
Pink Tree #1

You can trust my sense of visuals :)

I'm guessing it's a flower themed contest? If not, I really think you should venture out into areas with more emotion behind them.

Sunset Flower #6

Yeah - the one that I could get into if I win this one is for a calender of flower marco shots and a bunch of flower ads and stuff. I have to use the same shots if I do win, so I have to use of one my flower shots if I want to move on.

These are a beautiful pictures, but I certainly agree with you that if I have a choice I would rather capture emotion. But in this case, that's not an option. :)

(I hope I didn't seem like a twat lol)

orange&white#4

Orange & White #1
Orange & White #11
Sunset Flower #4
Pink & White #5
Red Flower #1

These are some really nice photos, i saved a few for screensaver =).

Pink and white #1.
Sunset flower #4.
Pink and white #5 is a very nice one for a close up and contrast photo. (My personal favorite.)

Pink and White #5 (nice combination between near flower and far stems)
Yellow flower #1 (nice contrast between flower and backgorund colors)
Sunset flower #6 (harmony between foreground and background)
Orange & white #6 (the flower seems to be looking to the camera :p)
Pink tree flower #2 (nice shade of pink)

Pity i only can choose 5... As general comment, i would suggest to add some contrast, or lessen the brightness, to make the colors brighter. (i dont know if is allowed to process the pictures with some program like corel/photoshop/whatever)
