    Great color and very nice composition. Probably would have tried to cut back on the blur on the second to try and have more of the petals sharp? Were the flowers moving in the breeze?

    I agree with shootme. Color and composition are good and only problem I see is the softness of the second shot.
    Keep Shooting!

    i think the first ones comp is good, but the flower behind the front one in the second pic is distracting, and even more so if the dof was greater.

    The first shot's color and intensity are nice against the dark background. I am not sure about it's composition though. The second shot is a bit too soft for me and perhaps too bland. I am not sure the white works here all that well.

    Shooting flowers is tough for me btw. I can never get that perfect scene. I think the intensity and color in # 1 ranks right up there at the top though.
