Firstly thanks to all the people that have taken the time to comment on each
image. All very helpful, so for what it's worth here's mine

Tim Conway
1. nice detail, bad memories :-###..
2. out of focus
3. looks very flat, low contrast or something

Savageduck
1.second, because it's not the worst
2 third, as a record shot it's trying to be too artsy
3 first, nice detail shows of the piece as it should, all three are
technically good as you'd expect.

RichA
1. lacking something, a point of interest maybe

Bowser
1. good detail, like the b&w
2. ditto
3. ditto

sid
1. yes it is disc brakes, twin front discs on a Triumph Sprint 955i
2. OK the focus should be on one thing or the other, I'll blur the petals a
bit and see. Apple blossom, btw.
3. It's a daisy about 12-14mm across. I like the contrast between the petals
and the grass

Frank Ess
1. whatever the intention the out of focus bee ruins it for me
2. I don't know what it is but it's close and sharp with good detail
3 I like the lighting and the idea but position in the frame should be
higher

Dan Petre
1. I like it, has a feeling of movement to it

Bob Flint.
1. Not really close enough for me
2. this one is and is nice and detailed to go with it
3. again not really close enough for me, although technically good

Andrew Reilly
1. I can see you're close to the tree
2. I like this one, a bit closer to the tendril would have been better
3. no2 is the better one, as much as anything the background is distracting

MG
1. Close and sharp, I'd crop out the sky at the top and probably the burnt
out petals bottom left
2. never seen one of those before, not an attractive foto to my eye, though
it does an admirable job of showing what a crane flower looks like
3. like richAs photo it's a bit flat although an interesting subject

Chemiker
1. nice enough, better with both wings out flat
2. surreal

Martha Coe
1. not close enough or sharp enough
2. close enough but not sharp enough
3. best of the three, maybe tone tone the bright leaves bottom left

peter newman
1. bright bold and close. looks good, would be better without the orange
frame
2. very good. I've tried with one of them and did not succeed as you have
3. again very good, look no frame

Alan Browne
1. it's close
2. nice and sharp where the focus is, good backgroud
3. very good

Tony Cooper
1. good job, lizard really stands out
2. excellent focus, I just like it a bit more central
3. nice, good separation from background

All of which off course is just my opinion
