You must photo, otherwise the value of the picture will be at least a half

less. Thanks, and have a nice day

I was planning this shot but you made it. However I feel the fg blurr is some sort of distraction and straining the eyes of viewer. Other than that a good shot.

I thought that fg blur will add a sense of third dimension. I think it highlight the sharp flowers, and pictures isn't that much common.

Good one. I agree with you that blur adds a sense of dimension. But I also agree with Ananda Kumar partially because sharp flovers take a backseat a little compared to the blurry ones since they are very dominant. All white flower are containing a little magenta which is bad in my opinion. Blue channel of this photo is ideal for creating a mask for removing this color cast at flowers only and further enhancing the flower themselves. In attached version I removed magenta from white flowers. Added a little bit contrast and extra sharpening to the sharp flowers selectively. This would help the issue you have been discussing with Ananda Kumar in my opinion. Then I applied a subtle velvia effect to the overall photo which I believe is fitting. I also increased overall contrast using a level adjustment layer with "blend if" option in order to preserve highlight details at the white flowers. I hope my version helps because I would like to contribute to an already very good photo. Best regards.

Amazing, I love the transformed one, here the sharp flowers are so dominant that my eyes go directly there and then comes to the fg blurr.

Thanks for advise. I agree with everything except the sharpness. Maybe I'm wrong, but it seems that your add some sharpness to the photo, and I think now it is oversharped. All other changes are suitable
