I think this is the last of these that I will post...might have too little in focus for anyone's eye, please let me know what you think.

On this one, Eirini, I would have liked more focus on the front flower of the two sharpest ones in the LLC. It actually appears like the rear flower of the two is a little sharper. I'd prefer the pof to be on the front one. Still a nice image with plenty of beautiful color wash, and I think the entire series is excellent.

Eirini - Not as strong as the previous two but definitely one that stands on its own. My comments mirror what Scott said + my eyes are slightly drawn to the bloom in the lower right corner. I wish the right bottom corner was clear.

I'll just agree with what scott said.

Eirini, I find your shot very appealing as is. Not sure I can explain why, but the word serenity comes to mind. :cool:

I find this a little distracting the way so much is out of focus.

Eirini:
I like the overall softness in the image but would like a wee more focus in the two blooms.
