Pictures look dull and flat to me. May be you should do some adjustments like curve, contrast,...

Anyway. nice flowers.

#6 is nice,
but i would prefer it to have less DOF
as the lower right hand side has something there that distracts

Can try to photoshop away

Hi bro Ortega,

I have something similar.

Do you mean something like this? Haiz. Bad thing is too much empty space on top of plant.

Anyway, Bro Michael, I think you just have to do some postprocessing, sharpen a little and contrast a little to bring out the ummph...factor to your nice germany plants. I like #1,4,5,6.

Regards,
tltan

Most of the pics like a little soft focus to me.

I like #4 most.
