What beautiful flowers and the butterfly is gorgeous. I wonder if it just needs a tiny contrast boost, you know what you could try. Duplicate the background layer, and then change the layer blending mode to soft light. Adjust the opacity slider to your taste. I think it's quite a quick and easy way to boost contrast without having to fiddle with curves/levels.

Wow, don't know what the plant it is (a daisy of some sort?), but you have done an excellent job of photographing it. Really lovely.

As always Shez, these are just lovely. I think Tulips are my absolute favourite flowers. We just have a long time to wait before they are in season.

Bees and Lavender

Lovely pics, I love lavender and well done catching the bees before they moved off. I like the triptych idea, but not so fond of the border.

Thistle is interesting, but unlike everybody else, i am not a fan of the border.

I was just looking thinking, this would have scored higher if it were not for the border. The pic itself is very nice.
