Florals at the Winnipeg Conservatory

Don - They're OK but none of them really jump out at me. I do like # 3 as it has one of those subtle,-old-pic-in-an-old-frame looks to it. I would lighten up the shadow areas on it though so to present more information to the viewer. All of them seem soft and/or with too little DOF - you should consider using a tripod when you're indoors like this (if you were indoors?).

I usually cringe when flower petals are leading off frame but these seem to work except the third maybe.
A little soft but the soft hues are great.

Thanks. I didnt have a tripod as this was not primarily a photo junket.

For me, and I mentioned this on a previous critique, it's hard to write a general critique on multiple images...so, I'm just going to comment on the first one. I like the close-up view, the cut petals not an issue for me because this one has a kind of abstract feel to it. It's a little dark, especially in the lower left, and I would have made the effort to clone out that black speck on the leaf in the upper right.
