I actually liked this a lot, thought the focus on the flower was great, and the leaves int he BG for me, helped to reemphasize the shape of the ballon flowers petals..perhaps a tighter crop would have helped by no having so much leave as a competing focus subject? the boke behind the bloom & leaves adds a lot too, by playing off the soft lavender in the petals.

Great compisition, but too much distracted out of focus subject matter

I would like this better if more of the flower were in focus and less of the leaves.

Very nicely composed. Great colors. If you could have gotten a slightly wider DOF to bring the entire blossom into sharp focus, it would have been spectacular.

A little more DOF might be nice, but I really like the contrast of colors and composition here.

I think a tighter focus on the flower would have been helpful
