A couple of things jump out at me while viewing your images -
+ the vehicles in the background are distracting
+ the merge of the red thingy with the top edge @ the fire plug with the
bottom edge looks like a mistake, either let it breath or delibrately cut
more off.
I'd efinitely try a longer lens, shot wide open.

Subject: Help with a shot
Yesterday, I took a few minutes off to wander about outside the office
with my K100 + DA40. I thought I'd get some shots of some recently
painted fire plumbing that was a very pretty shade of red. I tried
juxtaposing it with the bright yellow fire hydrant and the green hills
with a rock outcropping nearby.
I don't feel that the shot quite worked. One thing I may try is a
longer lens to flatten the perspective and bring the outcropping in
more. I'd greatly appreciate other suggestions of what to try to make
this shot work.

Photographs are like sentences, the best ones have both subjects and
