The borage seems a little over exposed, but I like the background.
the potato looks fine,is the pink tinge in the flower?
Oh yes, we had borage in the garden ten years ago, just one plant. We're still getting seedlings coming up, seems they;re a bugger to get rid of!

No 1 might be a nice shot if it were to be darkened down.
No 2 is much better, but check out the background when you shoot. From a lower angle would it have been possible to have blue sky as the background? That would have been much more powerful.
Blue recedes and the flower would have been projected forwards. This would have increased the impact considerably.

Pete,
One of the contributors to the slightly 'washed out' look of the first, might be that you shot 'into the sun'. If so, that tends to reduce contrast considerably.

I love those back-lit hairs in the first one. Looks like a useful lens to "find". Incidentally, I've been using a 28mm lens for flower shots today.
Best wishes,
Andrew
