Of the six, this is the best, IMO. The negative space is nice, maybe a little slice off one side behind the flowers to give them space, as if they are looking out, and bring them into the "thirds".
PS, your lens has some rough bokeh, but you can clean it up with some blur in PP.
The first is by far the best...I enjoy it becasue of the colors and arrangement. It may help to slice a bit off the right side...but I don't think it would help that much. The bokeh is great on this photo and I like how I see an impression of a person in the background reaching up as if to grab something.
I do think payn is right tho...very ruff bokeh on that lens, you can tell on the 3rd photo especially. But bokeh is personal preference...
Cheers.
I'm always mentally photographing everything as practice.

Thanks guys.
All of the day in the garden shots were shot with my nikon 1.8D. Yea it does have pretty bad bokeh and I was thinking about getting the 1.4D but now I see they both have the same amount of blades. Would the 1.4D really give me that much better bokeh?
