Having a really nice camera doesn't equate to images being good. At least it isn't black and white, or you would be a stereotypical kid "photographer."
Take pictures that actually mean something, not just some zoomed in close image of the tip of a plant with people in the back ground, or of the grass.
A general rule is, if it isn't a good picture with a bad camera, it isn't going to be a good picture with a good camera. Take these same images with an old nokia phone and see how interesting they are.
