One last pic - something pink

try putting your camera is "macro" mode next time you take pictures of flowers.

A tripod could help, but not necessary if it's real bright out.

I may have jumped up too fast. I live in a small southern town, and it is regarded as fairly strange to be walking around bent over photographing flowers, so I tend to do it quickly and discretly. LOL
 
Hey episodic - I did a bit of editing and cropping to the second one. From this type of shot you really need a tripod and cable release. Also I would use a shutter speed around 1/200th or higher.

That sharpens it up a bit, and crops it. I didn't like the other part of the flower encroaching in the shot as it takes away from your main subject, which is this group of flowers here.

What sharpen feature did you use? I'm assuming photoshop? Do you 'smart sharpen' 'unsharp mask', etc? What settings do you use.
