Beginner California poppy

There not too bad at all there Antony, they are rather centrally composed within the frame. Consider the rule of thirds when shooting flowers.
Also use an aperture of at least f11 and auto ISO, you had reasonable light so auto ISO shouldn't be a problem. Try adding a slight vignette in photoshop to draw viewers attention to the bloom. Numbers 1 and 3 have a reasonable plain background, the window frame in the second detracts from the shot. Try keeping a couple of A4 sized sheets of cardboard to place behind the blooms, one white sheet and one black it really improves the shot. Overall a very good start.(y)
