ID of these 3 flowers, please

The photos below are of 3 plants growing side-by-side in my garden and I've no idea what they are. Can anyone ID them for me, please?

Peony.. Aquilegia, I have the yellow one, can’t for the life of me remember it’s name.

The yellow one, looks a bit like a poppy, not a very good picture of it though.

Thanks Pauline. Sorry about the quality of photo 3a - I was a bit too close without realising it. The flower looks to me like a giant buttercup rather than a poppy.
