Dynamic, beautiful, balanced. Nice work. More a very short DOF than a soft focus, but this seems to be an issue with a lot of posts in this challenge :)

Narrow DOF, Looks sharp in focal plane to me.

nice photo but i think there are way too many flower shots like this to make it stand out

nice "rule of thirds" composition, colors work well for a soft focus challenge

Absolutely gorgeous shot, great shallow dof, love the colors too, but the shot isn't really soft focus, the main part is nailed in focus, this is more of "bokeh" instead of "soft focus", nonetheless a shot to be proud of.
