Nice flowers - especially No.4!

I agree that #4 is the best, though I wish #3 were. I like the composition and layout of #3, but the DoF is too shallow (a limitation of the macro, totally unavoidable). With #4 I might make one tiny change, and that is I would have held the two leaves in the foreground down so they wouldn't be in the shot. I used to carry four small (bottle-cap-sized) magnets in my camera case so I could weigh down plant leaves in the foreground without risking damage o the plant.

Thanks for the compliments.
Tobias we have some rather unique flora here and this particular botanical garden does a wonderful job of displaying it. I can see myself investigating the place regularly to see what is currently in bloom.
