The first one is like vintage painting. Like it.
The last one is also good.
Do not like the rest... to much noise on them (onion pic or whatever it is, light purple), blown highlights on the first, slightly on the second, etc.

It's a sharp lens, that's for sure. But personally I think the sharpness of the lens would be enough. Flowers look better with a shallow DoF and some softness - but that's just my opinion Kryss. You have a style that suits your taste, and the pictures reflect that. What do critics know?

Thanks Lloyd, as you state "what do critics know?" my posts are jpegs from finished to size for printing Tiffs,and vary from canvas prints to large prints dry mounted on foam board etc.this coupled with the fact my 27" HD cinema Apple display is constantly colour corrected and the finished prints are to my clients needs and wants,when these prints are finished and hung they are obviously approved or else my clients would not repeat their business. Art is subjective and piddly criticism from people does not bother me or my bank manager.Have a good day my friend and thanks for your comments. Who was it that said...Most people attending a Feast of Knowledge manage to devour a few crumbs.

OH.....Many thanks and to confirm, I don't mind criticism but would prefer like..or don't like as personal preferences are just that and many factors come into personal taste and usually ends up in a slanging match which I will not demean myself by entering.Regards

@kryss - I am just curious about those highlights... Are they on your Apple display present or not? Maybe is my display that needs correction... 
and also did you apply noise intentionally to to 3 and 4th picture or just happen to be like that? I guess that you wanted to be that way for some printing effect purpose on the 3rd but still puzzled...

lmfao why are you asking for cc if you then respond to it like a five year old
I could't care less about your endless client list and your big bank account
That doesn't make these images any better
And yes that is just in my opinion
As long as you and your clients think these are up to standards that's fine by me
But whatever

OK, my comment and critique, seeing as you welcome it, is that the pics are way oversharpened. Your PP work has done a disservice to
the lens in my opinion. Let's have a look at the original images out of the camera if you kept them, and maybe we can be more
supportive of your camera skills.
