Like the first but the OOF petal breaks the focus in the 2nd, distracting my eye - might be tempted to angle more into the centre and stamens so OOF would be to side of sight line

Great work steve, love both shots, if I had a crit it would be the composition. the first one I would have put the stem coming from the bottom left hand corner, so as the top half of the bluebell goes into the third top right.
Only my opinnion thou
