Critique Lavender Fields

Photos from a trip with the wife to the local lavender fields.

Please share your thoughts. I am hoping to learn new techniques and skills.

I like them all for what you are trying to do but for the hand. What has your poor wife done to you to get her like that in the shot?
One before last, I am puzzled to figure out where the focus is and some could have done with having the camera lower (yes I know the theory and then I would not be able to get up again).

Exactly that. Getting back up can sometimes be an issue.

As do the hand I was just trying something. There is only so many photos you can take of lavender.

I know the feeling very well. I got one of those 90 degree angle gadgets for the camera viewfiner (I forget the name) so when I put the tripod low down etc. at least I only have to go on my knees. So far I never had it with me and the tripod is too heavy etc.
