I'm entering an art competition/showing/silent auction for amateurs. I need to pick three pictures to get printed, framed, and submitted.
I've narrowed it down to 6 of what I think are my best ones. Suggestions on what 3 to pick? I trust /p/ more than most people around me.

Pick 2, 4, and 5.
1 has really harsh lighting that ruins what could otherwise be a decent photo. You could try to clean it up with post-processing, but as it stands it's not very good.
3 and 4 are just potato shots.
I like 5 because of the expressions you captured on the two guys on the right watching the bull-rider.
6 is just okay, because although you captured the bull-rider and bull in a pleasing position, the background is distracting and doesn't add much to the photo.
2 has pleasing colors and compositions, although it's not anything ground-breaking.
2 and 5 are really the only ones that are worth much to me. Is there a third you can pick from your other photos?

woops, I meant pick 2, 5 and 6 at the beginning there.

3 and 4 seem terrible. I would like to say only have 1 shot of bull riding to have some diversity. Good luck anon, update us with results after

Yeah OP listen to this guy

I'd also go with 2, 5, and 6
Really like 2 actually, the clouds look very good along the peaks, and 5 has some awesome colors. The action is very good in 6 but somehow the surroundings distract from the action in the centre

Really helpful advice. Thank you.
I'm not a good judge of my own work. I picked the six I was happiest with, but here's my flickr.

Maybe some of my wildlife shots?

A trespassing on the train tracks photo. Are you fucking serious or in middle school?
You should drop your camera in a vat of acid, wait 5 minutes, and then reach in there with your bare hands and get it out.

If I'd never seen a horse before I wouldn't know they even had legs after looking at your photos. You chop off legs and feet in almost every photo. You must hate foots. In the photos you actually manage to show the bottom half you have blank space on either side and part of the subject matter cut in half on the other side.
Stop zooming in so close and watch your framing.
