The short definition of Bokeh from KenRockwell.com, which I am using for voting on this challenge: "Bokeh describes the rendition of out-of-focus points of light." Check. Is the subject enhanced by the bokeh of the background? Check. Very pretty. This looks almost surreal. I have to say however, that the pattern visible in many of your circles is distracting. That's not your fault of course ;)

from the critique club:

Here you managed to create a gem of an image. In looking over your port, I notice there is a lot of talent and that you have the ability to make good selections. This image, then is only a natural transition, a moving higher in the plane of improvement.
The composition here is simple but the subject steals the show. Of course, you took care to supply a soothing nondescript background whose only job is to showcase the dehydrated rose which has gone through a metamorphosis in its aging. It took a real eye to spot it, and you did.
You also exercised great flair in baptizing it with the name you did.
What more can I say, except that I am thrilled by stroke of genius and this is certainly one! I am feel honored to have had the opportunity to review this extra ordinary effort. Keep up the nice work and many more ribbons will await you. dan
