I feel cool looking at this. A nice shady spot to hide from the summer sun. Bringing out some more detail out of the shadows, then dropping the levels a bit would add to the richness in my opinion.

Ouch - Reds are tough. What our eyes see is never what our cameras capture, and Reds can be about the worst to replicate. Saturation and contrast are too high on this in my opinion.

A bit harsh and busy. If you are willing to experiment, try adding a soft focus filter to the background and reduce it's levels and saturation at the same time. That will put the main focal point out to grab and hold teh attention.
Cool fence by the way - quite rustic and far from the cookie-cutter-same -as-everyone-else kind of fence. A lot of character there.

A bit too punchy in my opinion. The shadow details seem kind of lost, while the green jump off the page.

Much better - now it has far more impact.

Nice use of complimentary colors between main focal point and the background. A touch harsh, but I know I've tried to get these kind of colors and levels right, and dagnammit it's hard!

Nice background to compliment the colors.
The background thistle is a plus, just wish it had been a little higher and maybe more behind the main one. That generally prevents two main focal points in an image and keeps ones eyes in the main part.

Mixed feelings on the diagonal shadows. In one way it adds to the shot, in another, it makes for too busy. Overall I think it could use a tad more punch in the way of levels, or added brightness/contrast, or as some call it, luminosity.

Very nice presentation. Great levels, details and overall tones, with a very effect minimal depth of field.
(I know - couldn't avoid the pun)

Nice presentation and way to present your shots for the week.
Having each image with a drop shadow kinda adds a nice touch often. Just something to consider.
