Very nice, theres a image called 'Never Say GoodBye' where theres a flower and everything else is blurred and desaturated, you should try that, it will be very cool to see the result!

This is a very nice piece. I really like the contrasts, as ratbag and others have said, the contrast of yellow to green, the contrast of sharp to unfocused, and the more intellectual contrast of calm to uneasy.

The buttercup itself might benefit from a bit of unsharp mask to really crisp up those edges, especially all of the little details on the leaves and stalks surrounding it. Overall, a very dramatic piece. Nice work.

This is one of the most beautiful images I've seen for a long time...

This image looks so sad... yet fragile and beautiful...
This buttercup is doing much better than I do...

this is nice i mean the flower being alone there makes it look like great. maked it looks like it was blur. making the flower focus beneath a swamp.

Wow, this looks really cool. When you first look at it, it's almost like you are too close to the screen and have to move back in order to focus. Then you realise that's just how it looks. It's a great effect, I just love it!

The contrast of the very cheery flower with the brooding sky overhead is excellent. The colors also work well, with the brightest being on the flower. It also seems so be reaching towards the sky. Awesome.
