I added a page to my website for some of the wildflowers I shot this season. I think they look pretty decent, but that's just my opinion.

I agree Bob. You've put together a nice collection here. All have really nice soft lighting. My only critique is that on a few the bokeh is rather harsh and conflicted with the subject. One other minor item for consideration is the overhead iris shot. The focus is set on the upper petal group, but I think the yellow patches on on the outer petals is where the eye wants to focus. I'd try to set the focus plane there in the future.

Real nice set of closeups there, Bob!

I'm not much for flower close-ups but you have a nice collection here with good detail, composition and DOF.

Bob, your macro work is coming along really well. Some fantastic images in this group!

Thanks for the feedback!
Mel, I struggled with the overhead shot, and I agree...the focus is just a little in the wrong place.
