The front blur is distracting but I love the detail of the mid field and I especially love the blur/bokeh of the row of flowers in the back.

ok, here is my impression...I like your picture alot, (flowers are always a favorite for me) but the blurred flowers in the front distract me more than they enhance your picture...and it is a little on the bright side...a gradient would have "richened" up the flowers that are in focus and toned the "brightness" down

Fine, but the background with its sharp and dark shapes, although nicely blurred, is a bit distracting here

a little bland...lacks contrast, interest and composition...not sure where to start. The foreground flower and the background crop is distracting. Have a look through some of the top scoring flower images in dpc and you'll get some great ideas about how to do better in the future...
