 Taken outside in my backyard.

Changed levels, and played around with hue/sat to get this look. Original colors were yellow and pink, and I didn't like the way they clashed.

Good capture, nice focus and composition...but the background is not enhancing the subject. This might have worked better as a color image for a bokeh challenge. Then we could have seen the play between all of the different colors in the image. Make sense?

Definitely meets the challenge and exhibits proper bokeh. The subject matter leaves me wanting (not because it's a flower - I have nothing against flowers - it just lacks a "wow" factor for me). Good luck!
