    Love the colour in shot one but focus looks missed to me. The center of the flower should have the crispest sharpness imo.
    I like the shallow depth of field in shot 2, but again - my brain/eye wants to see that center sharper.
    Hope that may help.

    Thanks Marko. Used a kit lens (55-200) on this one, so not the sharpest lens there is. But somehow most of my shots keep missing the focus even though I use single focus on the specific area (in this case right in the middle of the flower). Oh well, will "keep on shooting" and do what I can to improve the focal points.
