Holly:
Brings back memory of spring. Lovely blooms. Overall, I like the DOF and how the image soften in the bg. However I wish the focus point is on the stamen/anthers or petals of flower rather than base of the flower / leaves.

Nice color and placement in the frame. Your point of focus seems to be on the leaves instead of the flowers where it would have had more impact. If you have an image stablized lens that also might help with the focus.

I really like this composition. I think the increasing sharpness of the flowers from back to front add a dimension of time. I feel like the flowers are moving from the past into the present. I agree with other comments regarding the point of focus.
