I really like the look in number 1.

Number 2 is super sharp, and it has stunning color.

3 is a little too harsh for me, and is a bit soft.

4 seems sharp, but the color and contrast are a little dull.

The first two are really good, though the first COULD do with some more brightness, unless you really wanted a flower photo to be so dark.

The third is a blooper to my mind, the background is way too bright, twig and leaves get a purple outline from overexposure and what comes with it (chromatic abberration could be the expression of choice here, but I'm not sure, to be honest), plus with the wrong settings - too slow shutter speed - you got camera shake, too.

The last is a wonderful flower, but the light is the least intersting here.

Thanking you for the comments, i've defo decided to bin no 3. i was trying to get the petals to have a see-through effect, but the overexposure ruined the rest of the pic! i'll try again with different light settings me thinks!
