Lovely soft flowers, you could maybe have had a tighter crop for a better effect.

In competition, I scored this one high, and I still do. It is beautifully interpreted.

I like this. Sometimes there's just no accounting for how the voters vote, and I think they're generally a tough crowd.

It might look better with a higher exposure level.

i dont think the way you have composed this works the colours pretty but only the top left is soft focus, the rest is shallow dof and oof.

Haven't seen Bleeding Hearts in bloom for ages. Nice subject for this and I like the diagonal.
