I like the composition and the bokeh is good. Not sure about the noise and the white pixels seem a little strange to me. Would have done better if the flower was sharper and the image cleaner. I agree with Rebecca about the color but I'm ok with the amount of light you have here.

Hi Gunnar-

The flower is too dark and out of focus, the hue is a little cold. In a challenge like Bokeh where you know there are going to be a million or so flower shots, you really need to make it something extraordinarily special. This might have scored a few tenths higher if it were at least a unique concept, but I think this scored about right overall.

I think this one suffered from being in a challenge with LOTS of flower shots. The background is a little dark, and the flower maybe not quite as clear and crisp as it could be. Otherwise, this is a nice image.

Flower isn't very sharp, and background would be better off lighter.

Definitely meets the challenge and exhibits proper bokeh. The subject matter leaves me wanting (not because it's a flower - I have nothing against flowers - it just lacks a "wow" factor for me). Good luck!
