@tso A gives me a hopeful vibe, the cool fence contrasts with the warm greenery so there's a nice tension there. The other three all lack that distinction and don't "speak" as a result.
I do like the warm greens in D, and would be tempted to try *selectively* making those adjustments.

@eishiya thank you for that very helpful feedback! I might try and fine tune the others and see if I can get the tension back. If by "tempted to try" you mean that you'd personally like to try I'd be all for it and would like to see what your edit would look like, I can send you the original if you like 🙂 anyway I'm not quite clear on what you mean by "selectively making those adjustments", could you elaborate a bit more on that?

@tso I meant if it were my work xP
And by selectively, I meant e.g. warming up the natural greens, but not the cool green of the fence, whether via curves or selections.

@eishiya ah, ok, thank you 🙂 would still be curious to see your take 😁 only if you want to though

@tso I personally prefer the warm tone one, it gives a kind of nostalgic midsummer feeling. The neutral one is a close second. The cool and black-and-white tones work if you're going for moody, maybe if the subject was something other than a cheerful daisy.

@milla thank you for your thoughtful feedback 🙂 yes, a dreamy summer vibe was very much intended 😀 you make a good point about the moodyness, it was indeed the point to contrast the more cheerful motif of the daisy with the moodyness of the colours using the fence as kind of a connection, but maybe I'd need to tweak it (or take the same pic in different weather) to get there 🤔

@milla darkened it down a little to make the moody stand out more and make the bnw more interesting, what do you think?

@tso now that's moody. It makes the fence's shadows on the flower petals more noticeable as well
