Nice shots, but they seem slightly out of focus or soft. Itmight be my older eyes getting worse! : )

Yes, very nice photos. I agree -- some are a bit soft on the focus. I know those dandelion fluff balls can play tricks on autofocus, so if you can, use manual focus. Also, if they were hand-held, I recommend using a tripod for closeups; at close up ranges, the DOF is short and it is hard to remain steady if shooting hand-held.

Oh yes, and it would help to know what you are shooting with and the settings. If possible, send your photos to DPS with Flickr and we can see all the information.
