| | | I assume the subject is the purple flower. Then the 1st one is better, but it's still not in focus.

| | | First one for me, but as mention by ScreenAce, the flower need a bit more sharpness.

| | | The flower looks a tiny bit sharper and more defined with the super macro setting.

| | | when youre doing a shot like this where only a select thing or select amount of a thing is in focus, you really need to hit it on the head, tack sharp for best effect. subject needs to be much much sharper.

| | | Thank you all What I wanted was your input on whether I Should just have the Flower in focus or if it looked better with the background in detail as well The Flower is the subject and in the picture I took before they were resized the first one is very sharp while the flower in the second one not so much

go for the flower in focus and the background blurred.

| | | The focus is your main problem. I would also suggest positioning yourself for a clean less cluttered background.

| | | I think that MACRO would have done great. In my camera supermacro works 0-10 cm, and I think in this photo length between flower and camera have been more than 10 cm, so it hadn't focus well. And in the second one I think that main problem have been length between camera and flower - this time length have been too short; many camera's need something like half meter or so to focus well without macro (or supermacro). And when you focus - in my camera (PowerShot S5 IS and before that PowerShot S2 IS and before that PowerShot A80) and almost any camera I think, you can be quite sure that it does focus right by pressing that, what was the word... Anyway, that 'take picture button' just HALF WAY before pressing it down and taking picture - if it can't focus well you see it, or camera can maybe tell it too (in my cameras center have turn to green when focus is well).
Damned this is hard in english when my language is finnish, but I wish you get the idea.

| | | The first one of course, but indeed it needs to be as sharp as a razorblade. When you go for this effect, it's even better with a bigger bokeh effect (the background even more blurry). I don't know what camera or lens you are using (super macro?). On the second shot it seems as if your sharpest plane is about 1,5 - 3 metres from you, this might even give a nicer effect if there are flowers closer to you (out of focus), flowers at the 1,5-3 metres distance (sharp as fuck) and with everything behind it out of focus. Something like this: http://www.flickr....soiree/2749491615/ Or this: http://www.flickr....ltitude/328455053/

| | | 'Super' macro? Ehhh. The angle is really boring too. Can you switch to manual focus? That would probably be why the background is focused more. You were probably too close to it, depending on the type of camera.
