Nice and crisp. Good focus. Interesting bokeh in the background makes me wonder about a little more width to incorporate it, but this works well as is in my opinion.

A good subject, but the dead center placement hurts it. Tweaking up the colors a bit would help as well.

Very nice, the black background helps this pop and the DOF is great!
