Very nice! Texture and soft colors on the top flower are very nice. The repeated shape of the out-of-focus flower adds a nice compositional element. I was wondering about the lighting on te back flower but finally concluded it helps separate the colors of the petals front to back. Fills the frame very nicely.
Wow! This is the first use of focus as an opposite which looked to me like it worked rather than just being accidental. The colors are beutiful, the focus is excellent, and the depth of field works for me. One of my favorites so far!
An o.k. idea for this challenge: in focus/out of focus, in front of/behind, shadowed/lit... The graininess, intentional or not, adds a painterly feel to the photo. The cropping is lovely, showing just enough of each flower--there is strong patterning there and yet it doesn't feel cut off. Overall, a picture to be proud of!
