Lovely image, David ! Love the spread of colour accents throughout the frame - somehow it works really well here, with great dof.

I love the way the main blooms and the tiny whites are sharper, with the greens softer... really sets them off!

Great job with flowers scattered throughout the frame. The tiny white flowers are a great addition...make it feel like a florist's bouquet.
