All three are nice, particularly 1 and 3 for me. I like the perspective of the flower shot as well as the background color. Nice job.

Thanks very much, Robert!

Robt, I had actually posted this on another site with the title "A Little Rough Around the Edges." To be honest, I didn't notice the unpretty petals when I was shooting. There are so many things to remember when taking a picture! I've finally got myself remembering to check my ISO...lots of boo-boos with that in the beginning. :-D

Thanks for the comments guys!
