2nd and 3rd are kinda neat

"Kinda neat" is acceptable LOL. I know from a technical standpoint there are a lot of issues but I like these pictures.

Any criticism that I can use towards making improvements in my photography?

I really like the colors and composition of number 4, What lens was used?

Thanks, I have the contrast jacked up on #4. I used my Nikkor 55-200mm with a Hoya 4x close-up filter.

Any more thoughts on my photos?

4 is the best. I dont really like the glowing look in the 1st one

I need to open the aperture up more to get more in focus areas

Well actually, if you open up the aperture (smaller f-numbers) you're going to lose depth of field, not gain it. Smaller apertures would increase your DOF and allow more of your subjects to stay in focus.

I meant open aperature up to a higher f number. Maybe I worded it incorrectly.

Theyre rather soft, underexposed and too contrasty for my likes.

Technically theyre nice, I like the composition of them. The only problem is that you cut a little bit off the bottom of the last flower. Still looks nice though

too soft!

 

[edouble]

I agree with them being too soft, thanks.
