Kids Photo Contest
Photo contest entry???
A photo contest with the theme of "Spirit of America" judged on creativity and originality...... As I have no pictures of a 4th of July parade, or kids waving flags, this is what I have come up with so far. I can submit 4 photos. Which do you like or dislike, and why? PLEASE HELP!!!!

Note on the selective color flag: I uploaded the wrong file to flickr.... I DID use the in-camera seeting for that picture. The one I meant to upload was the full-color that I had manually selected the red..... Thank you for your comment!
And when I did it manually, I made sure that the red tones were wide enough to tone the shadowed areas, too, then manually put the red bricks back to black and white. I really prefer the selective color version of the hoto, the full color looks too messy to me...
The obvious one, the flag selective color, is marred by poor use of the technique, which I suspect was done using the in-camera setting. There are dropped areas which should have color (look in the red stripes in the shadowed areas to see what I mean.) If you want to use it, I would either use a full color version or convert it entirely to B&W.
The bridge or the cloudy landscape are both very nice. I find a lot of spirit in landscapes, but they may not be the best fit to the contest criteria, and they are not terribly original.
I also like the little girl on the steps.
You have some nice photos, keep learning and practicing and you will only improve. Best wishes and good luck in the contest!
