Hi from Toronto.
I like the idea, - lens wide open with nothing sharp, - like the colours, like the softness. The placement of the main flower leave the shot unbalanced for me, and it may suit a square crop better. I would remove those brown stems too just to leave it softer in the background.
Although youve gone for soft, its not a bad idea to have a very small amount of the flower sharp, which Ive done in the mod. I also applied some diffuse glow to soften a little more, and applied a simple frame. Hope you like the idea.
regards
Willie
