lovely soft background and colors - I wish the bee was a littel brighter

Not a big fan of how wide the yellow border is here, and overall seems to have too much Gaussian blur? applied.

i really like the glowing yellow set on a dark background, usually with a tint of green. you have done that well, it does appear that you have a bit of halo around the stem where you dodged that area, I'm also not too crazy about the competing yellow area in the LL corner. personally i think this would be better without the bee, but maybe not, i imagine you tried a variation of this with out it and chose this one. i'm sure you'll get a few comments about the border too, but i like it.

Love the glow and the bokeh but I think the yellow in the border detracts a bit. ;~(

The bee should be the main focus of this image.

Very cool shot. Solid composition. Great color. This is an outstanding use of shallow dof. A very bold choice for border, some 'border nazis' may slam it, I think it works quite well for this image. Nice job!

this has some really great yellows. If the bee was in focus it would be 10 times better. Great job though, I don't blame you for staying a distance.
