Hi Eddie. Sweet image! The colors and soft focus bring the hope of Spring to this viewer. My preference would be to eliminate the oof bloom by either cropping or use of content aware. Personal preference only.

Hi Eddie. Gorgeous image. My only suggestion would be to clone out (or tint green) the tan/brown area in the lower left corner (and maybe also that little bit in the top right corner), just to eliminate a distraction. Great background and composition. Nice shot!

Eddie , I’d clone out Mark’s brown bit as well as the pale bit at the left basal area of the tulip; but i do prefer to leave in the oof bloom. Now you have 3 choices! But it’s an excellent shot anyway.

Beautiful picture, Eddie. I like as is. DOF is perfect. The oof bloom is toning up the expectation of spring. BG looks very natural. I prefer natural images to perfect and faultless ones.

Eddie, this is a fine look at this tulip. It has a nice glow from the lighting. The natural environment does look good also while the oof twin says that there are more tulips around to enjoy. The brown in the lower left is a minor distraction, but I agree with the non-cloners about leaving it. Another way to minimize it would be to burn the brighter bits and dodge the dark area, smoothing out the contrast would also reduce the amount of attention it gets.
