    Photography is the international language.

    I like #1 and #3, you did a great job focusing and the water droplets add interest.
    No, I DON'T need that.

    Hello To France
    I like the second on best simply because it is a bit more interesting with nice dof effect and good sharpness where it is needed.. The first one also looks very good..

    my view:
    the second and third are fantastic shots. Great balance and contrast there.

    the first one has great sharpness and detail to the water droplets, but the composition is too centered and symmetrical for my tastes.

    Good stuff!

    Sebastien -

    Welcome to the forums.

    I like your shots, but they could all be improved in some ways.

    # 1 is probably a little dark and although the water droplets are pretty, it could probably benefit from a stronger subject.

    # 2 is fun. It has nice colors, good geometry, and an interesting depth of field (DOF). However, it seems a little too soft (meaning it's not real, real sharp) and it is also somewhat rough/grainy. Not sure why. It could also perhaps benefit from a stronger subject area.

    # 3 is OK but too dark to really make out any detail. But I am not sure that it would be as interesting anyway because I don't think the pedals (not sure what they are called) are great macro subjects. I think you will find better flowers out there for such shots.

    Anyway - thanks for posting and hope to see more of your work in the future.
