Noticed these on my way through the garden when I came home from work today.

I think they have a beauty, a serenity, all of their own.

Just a bit soft for me.
One observation - it does show up a dusty sensor!

Retired at last - now all that time for photography - you would think: wink:

Thanks for the crit., David.
Wherein do you think the softness lies/
Presumably my focusing.....?
I'm also interested/keen to be shown the dust spots & their effects on these images....

I like these Roger. But yes they could do with a pass of the USM filter to sharpen them up after resizing. Only the third one looks like it has focussing or dof issues

Re the spots - can you really not see them?

Yeah, right......!
It's always the eyes that go first!

Thanks for that, I'll give the dust removal thingy a go.
