This is a beautiful scene.. have we seen this place here before maybe? It looks familiar... This is slightly washed out.. i think some minor level adjustments would help :)

It's a gorgeous flower. The environment in which it lives is not very supportive of a great photograph.

tonal range here is rather flat but the image does have a good feel to it overall...

This is a neat shot. I like the idea in general, but this image has an impressionistic feel moreso than a soft focus feel.

This doesn't appear to be soft focus at all. I can see the softness around the edges... maybe like a spot filter or something. Your subject seems quite sharp.

Whatever method you used here for soft focus worked. As you self-evaluate this image, ask yourself if the soft focus improved the image or degraded it. I'm just guessing, but it looks like a flash was used on this shot. That, coupled with your soft focus method seems to have washed out any color or warmth that would normally be associated with a soft focus portrait.
