This one is a big change for me in colors. I usually tend more towards bright colors and dark backgrounds.

A touch of saturation
Warmify
add border
Sharpen a tad

Very nice tones & DoF in this.
I think the presentation would be a little better if everything outside the purple line was white, and/or perhaps have the line a bit finer?

Beautiful mood here IMO...I like the lighting and both of the more subtle colors together...I wanted to see that grouping of blooms a bit closer though..I thought the one on the right was a little bit of distraction and that there was a little too much room on the top and I might try a slightly different color border..but..Only my opinion though..:)...Overall a very pleasing image to my eye!

I like the softness on this. Looks like a shot for the wall in an oriental style bedroom.

Beautiful techniques, DOF is perfect frame adds to the presentation. Would be great mounted and hung as a decoration.

These soft colors are very soothing to look at. Your framing completes this perfectly.

I love the dof. So soft and pretty. I will have to agree with chaimelle, this would have been good for dreams.

Soft and delicate were my first thoughts, but dreamy might sum it up better. Very nice.

Effective use of DOF on a good comp. I like borders, so I like this one.

This is such a neat capture! I love that parts of two flowers are in focus instead of just one flower. Just one suggestion about the border, I would love to see it if the colored border were closer to the edge of the photo. There's just a little too much space between the two for my taste. (just an opinion)

That's a very ephemeral image with a fascinating use of DOF, but the danged border is ruining it for me; you need to tone that way down IMO, just a hint of color and a finer line.
