I like the soft focus look of number 2 a lot better.

I just noticed the bright spot above the roses, reflection off the background on #1. I will fix that tonight when I get home.

I wish the front flower was not out of focus in number one. That one is my favourite as the reds are blown in number two and that doesn't work for me very well. Number one has lovely tones and exposure but that front blurry flower is nagging at me. Excellent studio type work though.

I'm going to reshoot it tonight and up the f-stop to around a 4 or 5.

Either put all the flowers in roughly the same plane or at the very least take one with the focus on the one in front. I don't mind if the focus fades away but having the one in front out of focus is very disconcerting to me.
