Blimey Rozter....5 challenges 3 stars and one ribbon!!!!!!!!

I love the graduated peach backdrop on the shot which really sets the flower off nicely

The dof is so cool as well and it is brilliant the way the sharpness in the foreground dissolves slightly and then seems to return on parts of the flower in the background, before returning to bokeh

Cooool trick

time out in the naughty corner!!

I love it and think it's a beautiful tribute and birthday wish for your mum.

If you wanted to soften it you could always try a diffuse glow/gaussian blur overlay and play with gradients...... but I think it's lovely as it is.

Oooooh. I like. But I am also seeing a woman's face (primarily eyes) in the upper left corner. Maybe it's Mum saying it's a good job, and thanks for the gift?
Nice one. I think you did well. I especially like the spiky leafy texture paired with the roses.
