I like the composition but I think it would be better in this case if more of the flowers were in focus. I do normally like shallow depth of field for flowers, but with so many flowers close together and some sharper than others it feels a little muddled. My eyes naturally want to settle on the ones a third from the left but they are out of focus so my eyes start flitting around for one that is sharper.

Like the vibrancy and composition and the light is gorgeous.
#3
The out of focus flower dominates too much for my liking.
Overall a lovely set with nice light and composition.
I am curious about why you need to copyright flower pictures for facebook.
I think your watermark strip does the job perfectly well. It clips the subjects so couldn't be cropped / cloned out but doesn't spoil the image.
I can understand if you were providing proofs for clients and you didn't want them to print them, but I think for this type of image, the big c in the middle is a bit OTT.
