WOW! If I had to choose, I'd say the second and the third shots are it! I've been trying to shoot some flowers meself but somehow the results are not always what I had in my mind! But I just got a tripod now so lets see how things work out from here on..Would you let us know how you set these shots up? That would be a great help!

2nd to last shot is by far the best in my eyes. Perhaps a tad more contrast to it and you got it!

I took my trusty, Nikon 5700, Tripod and went outdoors to my flower bed I set the camera on Aperture Mode, put in Macro, (I have a flower lens hood as well to control the light) the put the self timer on. The aperture is 4.7 on these shots, I will get all data when I return home from work for you. I just cannot access that info from work.

I hope this helps you out.

Lancer: Thank you for your reply. My tripod seems to be making an obvious difference! Looking forward to seeing more of your work!
