I like this shot, nice job.
The background almost looks like a painting.

If I were you, I'd print that out (poster size if affordable) and hang it for everyone to see. This is an awesome shot.

the whole thing kind of looks like a painting, did you do much PP? something about the focus looks kind of strange to me...

My first thought as well: it looks like a painting :D

I love the colors, the light and the DOF. I might prefer it withouth the oof flower in the fg on the left, but who knows?

it might make for improvement

Good colour on these white and orange flowers. Good contrast of the two colours. The bottom right hand side flower is a little distracting. Take that away and you have a perfect image.

What the others said. I like the feel of this image. I would be interested to know if you used painter or something similar on it. The OOF flower in front is distracting but yet I don't know that it improves the image without. Hmmm..
