I think your first image shows the foreground and middle ground well but does not prominently show the background. I think the way in which you were framing the photograph seemed to exclude the background. The same thing also happened in your second image. The background seems to be out of frame. The middle ground is hard to detect as well in the second image due to the large emphasis on the focal point of the chairs in the foreground. The first image gives a nice element of special depth between the foreground middle ground, and background. Each subject shown in the photograph has a distinct distance between them. You did a great job of focusing on the foreground subject in both of the images. I think a way to improve both images would be to put this same focus on the middle ground and background. I also believe that images could be improved if you were to reframe them. The angle the photographs are shot only slightly shows the background. I think by reworking how you frame the subjects, the foreground, middle ground, and background will be more distinct. The two photographs also do not use much light. This produces a slightly darker image which does not allow the eye to easily flow through the scene. The use of light, especially to create contrasts, would be beneficial and help to separate the foreground, middle ground, and background from each other.
