 After several unsuccesful tries of trying to shoot an original 'green' photo, I started to brainstorm what else is green apart from the obvious bugs, leafs and flowers, and came to the conclusion that 'green' is a noun for a part of a golf course.
The next challenge was getting access to a golf court, because apparently not being a member makes you a sort of pariah with no rights on the course. I'll leave it to the imagination how I managed to shoot this picture.

Hardly any post-processing, apart from levels and some hue changes.

I like this--very simple and straightforward. The tiny bit of edge beyond the turf could be cropped out, and it would really pop!
Great shot!

I'm surprised there weren't more golf themed shots. I think you migh improve the composition of this one. Maybe add some action by having the club address the ball. The feet distract me a bit. There doesn't seem to be a clear focal point.
