Interesting flowers and well composed, but it seems a bit soft to me.

Thanks for looking and commenting, Phil and Richard.
The posts in this series are part of outings in a local flora identification class in which the teacher has forbidden tripods as it is not a photography class. So I am taking the challenge, hand-held, in spite of the lighting conditions and rather stought breezes.
These are "snap shots" I'm taking for use in documenting the flora; I think they may be of interest to folks on NPN who are into flora and so I am posting them on that basis in spite of their technical flaws. However, I think it is also useful for those flaws to be explicitly stated, and I hope viewers continue to do so.
