Very nice shot here! Colours, DOF and focus are all brilliant! Well done!
I like the selective focus here but I don't find the main flower at center left sharp enough. I would have liked the flower's center to be tack sharp and the petals around that flower a bit sharper. hope that helps - Marko

I love the composition here. Also the green bokeh. Not sure on the flower colour itself though, looks a bit too saturated to me. Maybe that's how they really are?
Agree with Marko that the center flower needs more sharpness. As always I believe that at least one thing in the photo should be sharp (with the possible exception of the Orton Effect and similar ... but even then ... ) and in this case I can't see anything that's sharper than the rest leaving me thinking it's simply out of focus or has movement.
Ohh..i love the comosition in this one!
