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.

Beautiful little frog! The pastels of the bokeh are really pretty, too.

That golden yellow is a perfect foil for him.

My, what big eyes he has! I particularly like the bit of texture in the bokeh on the right.

Wild Flower

It's a thistle! Quite popular with the pollinating set. I like the soft colors and the repetition of shapes in the bokeh.

Grey Cat Bird

I see that bit of red under the tail! Catbirds with their raucous calls just arrived here a few weeks ago. They're entertaining birds :-) "Yours" is nicely captured and the green bokeh makes him stand out well.

Like the composition and highlights in the background. Seeing a bit of ghosting around the OOF leaves; I think I'd blur the whole background more.

Love the detail on the Swallow; they are lovely birds. Background is softly complementary.
