Took this in front of the Union on campus (MSU). There were several shots of different flowers to choose from, and I chose this one. Hope it was the right choice.

This is my first try at bokeh. Hoping to score about a 5.

The composition seems rather unbalanced, particularly with the rose merging with the border.

I think this shot would be better without the border. The flower have some parts out of focus and the background is too dark, which is really not cool for bokeh. The left part has almost a good bokeh, but i think you lost a lot with the dark parts.

Love it...I agree with you that the background is a little two in focus, but on the other hand, it doesn't distract from the flower. I think the background is blurred just enough to be bokeh, and that is fine. Good job!!!!
