Those are nice designs in and of themselves. Now for a few questions. Assuming this is a design competition, Is there a title or theme to the designs? Are the entties to be a floral interpretation of another work of art, such as a painting?, Are there height, width, and scale rulings/ criteria? They could be great designs capable of winning, or, if they don't mesh with the competition guidelines, then they may not be winners at all.

Hi Ricky, they weren't for competition, and security at the track was very strict this year, for some odd reason. We do this race every year, and the track owners ask us to do something a little different each year, and this was this year's versions.
We have a 20 minute window to get in, set up, and get out...so I took quick shots........
