Color, color, and more color. Nicely done with the out of focus flowers and showcasing the yellow stems.

This is very cool, Floris! The comp/balance is just perfect. I really like the extreme select focus here, very artsy.

I like the washes of color you created with your cram shot here, and the yellow flower as the star of the show.

Great selective 'vignette' type focus. A strong creative aspect to this image. Love the vibrant colors

As much as i love this, the color, the bokeh, I find the diagonals and straight line compete. Maybe its just my eye, I have never liked that combo, all diagonals, or all straight. Weird like that. I like the comp though, including the length of grass.
