Very good. I cherish my Lantana bush and have taken shots of it on several occasions. I love them. Nice focus and nice bocca.

Thanks Sharon for the comments. I actually left the leaf on purpose because the accent is on the bokeh, and I think the stem as a whole contrasts against the background and I also didn't want that perfect bouquet look in this case as the main subject isn't the flower (if that makes any sense). Thanks for the comments and suggestions, they are appreciated. Judi

I fully agree with what everyone else said about the bokeh complimenting and setting off the flowers beautifully. Your depth of field is perfect in this. Have you tried a crop that would take out the kind of sad leaf on the right? If you came down from the top and in from the right you could crop it out and still save some of the most interesting bokeh spots. That way it wouldn't distract from the blossoms. Still, a lovely shot! ~Sharon

Lovely colors and the b/g sets off the flower nicely. CJ

The bokeh sets off the bloom very nicely. Well seen.
