Now they weren't taken on the South Shields coastline! Nice depth of field.

I'm not sure what flowers either of them are. They were just in a vase at my parents house and I thought I'd take a few pics. If anyone knows for sure I'd be interested to know myself.
P.s Thanks for all the comments, really enjoying this website

Very nicely done. I especially like the light in the tips of the petals on your last one.

The closeups are good. If you're really looking for some constructive criticism for improvement, you should post this in the "Critique My Shot Section" forum instead.
