the background fence is a little distracting from the cool dragon, but still good detail

It seems a bit out-of-focus. I guess it would also work better if the figure wasn't centered.

the focus is good, but a little more depth to include the eyes. better composition, ie: non centered and a "something extra" might have helped more.

this is not a bad shot! Perhaps re-adjusting the camera focus, and decide whether or not the dragon should be front and center. If the idea is to invoke the idea of "lawn" this one speaks more to the dragon. Maybe offsetting the dragon to another portion of your frame while still focusing on some portion of the grass could create a stronger connection? Rule of Thirds! You have a creative thought here, keep going with it :)

You have a fence like mine. But in this shot, it is too distracting - provides a strong horizontal line that slices through the head of the dragon.
