The center of the sunflower looks like a heart.

This is a lovely flower, do you know what it is?

This one isn't bad. There is a nice backlight from the sun on the upper petals, and the composition is very appealing to the eye. Colors are clear and vibrant, all in all this is one above average flower shot.

As jmsetzler once noted, you can be your best critic: What did you try to show with this photo? What made you take this one, from this angle, with this composition? If you can answer those, (and post the answer into your comments above) then I might be able to relate to the photo some more.
This way, I see a half-closed, perhaps half-dried sunflower, without any context to understand why was this photo worth taking. It is lacking visual appeal of a beautiful healthy colorful plant, and the surrounding leaves are, well, also not that appealing.

Sorry, this was a miss.

I'm afraid that the DOF is too shallow for the macro-style shot. The light on the bug is too low, so it does not help it stand out... nice try but just does not have a wow factor for me.

This is an intriguing image. The expression on the boy's face and the angle really make this shot. What probably hurt you scorewise is that the background is lighter than the subject. Not much you could do about that in basic editing, of course. Nicely seen, a definite keeper!
