Focus on bluebells is funny. Light is exquisite, focus directs eye to a different part of plant than expected, subverts the aesthetic of blooming beauty to appreciate another part of the plant.
Same with the one with dark background. Making a picture about those whiskery inner parts after petals fall starts to be more interesting because it's not expected and is about a less appreciated time and thing.
Always a good idea to look up too, and make verticals. I would only crop a small portion of clear sky at the top as distracting from what the picture is about. It draws the eye upward to the edge of frame and interrupts eye traveling throughout the light and leaves.

The rock in the flow wants to be sharp, doesn't it?
Some of your own comments would be interesting too, Lynn, though I think your images do speak.
