After seeing all the posts about CB I had to get over there to see for myself. Went Monday am and had to be back today by noon. I was amazed of the fields of flowers on display.
# 2 Gothic was very good. Washington Gulch road was also good. Made the drive to Paradise Basin and back down slate Creek. Slate Creek Rd had very few displays. Still cannot make the loop from Gothic Rd to Paradise.
# 4 Brush Creek Road - flowers are going fast- most areas receive sun all day. There has been a lot of photographer traffic in these flowers and with the traffic on this road the flowers are very dusty. Need some rain.
A beautiful display of flowers up there! I like the variety you captured in #1 and the great limited DOF in #5.
Skies look a bit funky in the first two. GND or vignetting of some sort?

All of these great images of slopes decked with flowers make me yearn to be in CO now.
I especially like #5 and the solitary yellow flower standing apart and in focus. The darker background area at the top gives the image depth too.
That is one nice collection. I'll echo what John said about the first two having dark skies, but a little balance there and they will be killer! The other 3 are just as sweet. You know I'm gonna like me some wilflower images.
