Most of the frame is out of focus, except for a narrow band on the right. Was that your objective? A smaller aperture than f/5.6 would have helped. But if there was ever a need for focus stacking, this is it. The colors are appealing. With an extreme closeup like this, you might consider cropping out the stem. Did you apply the rule of thirds? There's a lot of non-functional empty space on the right. One learns the "rules" in order to be able to break them when it makes sense.

I love the selective focus bringing the water droplets to the center of the image. I do like the subtleness of the shot.
