Hi Thomas,
I may have wanted a hair more light on the bleeding hearts......reflector perhaps or a bit of flash to really make it pop. I was going to comment on the BG circle/highlight??....but I kind of like it's location.....although a hair more room at the bottom may help.

That's some pretty sweet bokeh, baby! Love your composition and the BG is almost as good as that delicate but perfectly in focus flower. I opened your image up in PS and think you could get away with moving your midtones levels slider to about 120 instead of the normal 100...it brings more soft light into the image and helps those flowers stand out even more.

I like your new angle on bleeding hearts, without catching any of them straight on. Combined with the lighting and dew and BG, this is a very interesting image. I agree that I'd like to see it a little brighter.

Nice job!
