This is one of my favourites so far... the only thing is the leaf in the bottom left draws the eye. Perhaps some selective blur on that corner would help disguise it.

Wonderful bokeh, could use a bit more light on the flower.

This may sound weird, but I think I'd like the bokeh better without the flower. Probably wouldn't score well but it makes a soothing abstract, like watching bubbles in a tank.

Or maybe take the color out of the flower? You've got nice DOF and detail but it all just feels a little busy to me. The bokeh isn't enhancing the subject to my eye.

Lovely background. Wish the color was a bit more saturated, but that's just me
