What I notice first, is how bright the main bunch of flowers is. It's texture in combination with the brightness kind of makes the individual little flowers just blend in with each other making one large blob. This looks like what we call "Queen Anne's Lace".
What I notice next howeve, is that the bright bunch is still actually greyish, so lessening the brightness would make it even greyer and leaving this a really grey image. I'm not really sure what can be done to help fix this problem, with the issue of the brightness and greyness. I'd rather have the brightness, than the greyness.
The next thing I notice is the way each little flower puff is a different shade, and one is darker than the next. I like how this creates depth within the photo. As the photo fades into darkness, so do the flowers. I find this really visually appealing.
Your focus and DOF are really good. The focus of the main flower in the front, on the stem is really clear. Probably clear on the flower part also, but the brightness making is all blend together makes determining focus of that section difficult. Then, as the DOF fades into the background, with the darkening of the flower puffs is really looks good.
I wonder how it would effect the impact had the entire main flower been in the frame. You have cut off a small portion of it, which doesn't seem to effect it much, if at all. Curious to see if it has an impact being all in the frame.
I think it's nice. That brightness does effect it though in a negative way. Had not been for this, this would be a VERY nice shot.
