Great 'painterly' feel - bold sweeping strokes - brilliant. I love that it's busy and alive.
I had a hunch it wouldn't score high - but it was in my personal ribbon contenders.

I've come back to this several times. I love the tones of the green and peachy brown. I think the problem that is has, is what many others are suffering with and that's that it is busy and seems too cluttered. It's so hard in nature type shots to fix that problem. I do like the focus on the single bloom, but the one in the lower right seems a touch distracting. I think if I were to redo it, I'd just pluck that one out of the ground and it would clear up the space for the subject and the rest of them being blurred wouldn't detract. It definitely has bokeh and you did it well, technically. 7
