Beautiful colours, very good selective focus. If anything, IMHO the bud could be placed a bit higher in the frame (or maybe crop the image to a slightly less longer image, cropping about 1/8th off the top.

Two Daisies

It has, way too long. I've been spending countless hours looking at images from the last couple summers, just because of all the snow and grey. The purple/pink background looks unusual to my eyes, it goes really well with the yellow/orange of the petals. Beautiful repetition.

Added (after reading other comment): I disagree, not overall focus, but maybe focusing more on the front-most petals. What is in focus now are side petals, which makes the image "look" blurry. I think, if the front petals were in focus instead, and there would be no foreground blur, it might work better in this case. Something to try at least.

Good conversion to B/W, the different crop works well for this version. However, I think the main impact of the photo is the colour (as shown in the original), regardless of crop. In other words, IMHO, the B/W version doesn't have nearly the impact of the original colour version, although I like the crop and would be interested in seeing aa colour version of this crop.

Fern & Creek

What is the bright white area to the bottom right of the image? Is that the creek? I like it how the fern in focus has a smaller oof echo.

Ice Blue

Beautiful combination of movement (water moving) and perfect stillness (the ice). Lovely grey/blue tones. You're good with water shots.

The colours are beautiful.

Relax

Cool idea. I like the knee/leg in focus, the relaxed wrist behind softer. The blacks are incredibly black in this one.

Flawless job of combining the two exposures.

It's a beautiful tree. The picture looks quite bright on my computer screen. It is very centred, which makes it look very much like the tree is there, not moving, right there.
