You've done well. That's a pretty intense colour I just flicked through at random and didn't look at all of them but I like:
4369 - very sharp and stands out well against the background. 4349 - that pollen covered insect would make a great illustration for someone lecturing on how plants are pollinated. Excellent! Especially the large version. I'm not surprised that the K100 matched the K20 at this resolution. My *istDS loses nothing to my K200, but the extra resolution of the K200 is handy when cropping is needed.
