What lovely flowers. My favorite is the drop of water. Very clear and sharp. Nice!

I like the color, composition and contrast in the first picture, but I think it would be even better if the flowers were sharper. It's a beautiful picture.

I love the concept in the second picture. It's the type of picture I would take. I would get closer to the water drop though. That way you could see the reflection within the drop.

I love the third shot. The interesting twists and turns of the branches lead the eye all around the shot and up to the sun peaking through the leaves.

Thank you for sharing.

Sue

Welcome to UHH Philip. Nice pictures and thank you for sharing. I downloaded your pictures and didn't see any camera information so one is unable to view the settings for the pictures to offer precise information. Did your camera come as a kit with another lens ? Perhaps a Telephoto Lens of 55 - 200mm or so ? If it did, you can change to this lens to get a closer shot as was suggested in the 2nd photo with the dew drop.

There is a world of information available from other members here, as well as using the SEARCH key at the top of the header under the Photography Forum Heading. One can type in Depth of Field (DOF) to learn what this is and how it plays an important part in "tack sharp" pictures. This is just a start, I hope this will help some. Perhaps someone here can show you how to turn on the feature to show camera information for your photo's, I don't know how on your camera. Keep shooting and posting. :-)

A good tripod and a remote control for your camera.
Here is a link to a remote for your model...

I like the first shot the best. You have a pleasing contrast between the colors in your subject and the background. You are starting to really get the concept of isolating your subject by blurring the background. This is nice work.
