These are snapshots, nothing more. All I see in the first photo is a lot of yellow, then a spot of purple and some brown. The only reason this could even be slightly appeal to someone would be the almost reasonable DOF. The second one is just... sharp shadows, horrible composition and DOF. I don't know what I'm supposed to be looking at. Why not do a collage? I think the horse statuettes would look good in a soft lighting environment close-up with a shallow DOF (maybe just the heads, front-on but at an angle). Gather some more colourful photos with shallow DOF or soft lighting. Maybe a restaurant at dusk (dark blue sky, after sunset but not yet pitch black, with people inside and lights on etc). Cars could work also. Houses are fine, as long as they're not private houses; it's not illegal, but you don't want to piss anyone off. Also with collages you need good colour contrast so get photos of things which are primarily red, yellow, blue, green etc - the restaurant image could count for a blue photo. Assemble them like thumbnails with black bordering between each. Incorporate landscape and portrait orientation photos. Place opposite colours close to each other.
