These are beautiful!

What lens were you using for this?

I used a Sigma EX 70-200mm.

Thanks for the advice and comments guys - especially minus_human. I honestly couldn't believe how peaceful it felt to photograph in the park at that time of day. I'm definitely going to check out the site when I get home because I really need to start properly researching how to improve/expand my range.

Wow, very nice. You did a good job bringing out the colors. The two mistakes people make the most when taking photos of things like flowers is first, not properly utilizing DOF and not bringing out the colors properly (combination of making use of lighting and post-processing levels/curves). You got both down in spades.

The only critique I can give is the lens flare distracts a bit in the photos where it shows up. :X

Thanks - I still need to get the color levels sorted properly on my laptop because a lot of people say the photos look a bit dark when they're interior. The OS is Korean though so it's kind of difficult until I manage to grab one of my Korean friends. I'm glad it seems to have worked well this time though.

Yeah I wanted to edit out that lens flare in the last photo, but it ruined the middle of the photo and I'm not that skilled with photo shop so I had to leave it be. I'm definitely going to go out and try at a different time of day (I'd love to do some post-rain shower floral photos!) to see what different effects I can come up with.
