Saw this very rich colored flower and noticed some visitors that seemed to make the picture more interesting. Did a minor clone to remove a hole in one leaf of the flower and sharpened just a bit durring the resize for submission.

This is great. The colors are so vibrant, the focus is very clear and the blurred background really adds to the image. The bugs, or visitors, are a bit subtle at first but they're great. They don't take away from the subject.

8 - Very nice. Difficult, not only because of the 'opportunity capture', but any changes to the dof would lose the good effect(s) you currently have, however 'if only' the two bugs in perfect focus as well. A slight variation in cropping, especially on the left, and depending what you had to work with, more included on the right for added balance overall compositionally, make this even better in my opinion.
