Hiya, highflyingpilot, and welcome to ThePhotoForum

.
There are some nice photos here.
All are a bit pale and could do with some more contrasts (the cones), but it shows that you quite effectively know how to use DOF (depth of field) to create a blurred background.
The very first does not do too much for me, the subject matter is quite ... hm :scratch: ... and the composition ... oh well ... not so interesting.
I like the fourth best of all, only does it look either a tad oversharpened or showing compression artefacts, don't know which. It is best contrasted.
I like the last, too, but find it primarily grey. No real white and no real black there. You did not take your camera out into a blizzard, now did you!?!? :shock:
