 These interesting-looking plants were growing among the rocks along a footpath that leads to the rim surrounding Crater Lake, but I have no idea if the plants are flowers or weeds. Do you?

A shallower DOF would have allowed for the flowers to have taken more prominance.

Truffula Trees?

Focus could be better and the lighting is flat.

I'm not voting on this one because I don't want to give a really low score. This is not a Still Life. A Still Life requires an arrangement of inanimate objects. Not as they are found in nature.

Not a still life photo in my opinion. Pushing the envelope here will not cut it.

Weeds I'm afraid. The background is two cluttered. There is not enough distinction between the subject and the background. A different camera angle or less depth of field might have improved it.
