Not too sure about #3 but 1 and 2 are very nice, I like 1 for the white flowers in the back. Smile

Sit, stay, ok, hold it! Awww, no drooling! :O

Nice blurred backgrounds on #1 and #3, although I think the DOF is a bit too narrow on #3, as some bits are out of focus - especially towards the left.

I think #3 really informs me. It demonstrates something about growth. Good shot.

Hi Irma,

#1: I think the white flowers in the top left create a wonderful balance in the image. The DOF is pretty good although it looks like the front petals are slightly out of focus this doesn't detract from the overall image.

#2: I think this is a bit busy. Perhaos if you can isolate a certain part of the plant it will have more impact.

#3: I'm not to sure about this one. I think it would benefit from greater DOF and also the branch doesn't feel right. Perhaps try getting in closer to the berries themselves.

Definitely #1 for me! Big Grin

Thanks for your comments Smile I will try again with the berries.

Don, you got the message. Now I just need to get it with a better technique....

muzza, you are right about the petals at the front in #1. This is something I will practice a bit more. The thing is that I am always afraid to get everything sharp. Thanks for your advice with #2. I still have the flowers so I can try again. Smile
