First… I’m not a fan of selective color, but others love it.
With this one, I think green leaves are needed.

Second… F1.8 gave a very narrow dof.  
Perhaps too much, leaving only the middle flower in focus.
I don’t know if that was your attention.

Both shots seem a bit overexposed and maybe some post is needed.

Thanks for your comments.

Agreed with the Selective color issue… In this case it helped me to separate the flower from the background because i didn’t like it, even the leafs where uglies :) , i promise to upload same flowers with better backgrounds.

In the second it was the my intention to leave only the center in focus because i’m testing the 50mm DOF and i really liked it :)

 

Post edition is still my weekness, but slowly i’m learning usefull tricks.

Now, these are really nice.
The yellow and pink combination of the second rose is lovely.
I assume that these are the natural colors rather than produced in post.

That’s right… No post edition in this pics.

The 50mm does a really good job with the natural colors.
