Interesting ... the focus of the image is hard to find, although I enjoy the color while looking, it becomes confusing among the green distance and the purple center and all in between. 5

bizarre effect for a pretty flower...almost alien-like, and the boke is distracting

The focus is a little too soft for my liking. I would have like to see the center of this flower tack sharp. Nice colors though.
