The lens renders beautifully. I think nr 5 is very nice, nr 6 is similar but only using 1 hand kind of throws the shot out of balance.
Thank you. The lens has converted me to Super Taks... Will acquire more. With #6 I was thinking that the curve of the arm and all gave it a dynamics that balanced the photo... Didn't quite work, eh?

really liking #5, the hands are wonderful with that deep red rose!
your irises are almost abstract with the shallow DOF, it's interesting how that lens renders the transition to out of focus.
like the lily, too, and I'm jealous because the lilies won't be blooming here for a while yet.
Thank you. Your thread inspired this... That and the lens! Painting like. Amazing. And that is without any more advanced detailing in Ps... Oh boy. No classes this summer means more time to learn Ps. I'm in the NW and Lilies can be blooming all through late summer... Yum and Roses too.

number 5, nice composition and artistic interpretation...
Thank you. It was the lens. Just had to stay out of its way. Think it was in a shoebox for 10 years. Must be eager...
Any Ps detailing suggestions?
Stay cool,
