Added the same shot again but this time with the As Shot White Balance

The bokeh is really confusing...seems like you've tried to recover the highlights or something like that??

Nice detail on the flower in focus though!!!

Faisal, it wasn't the highlights, it was the white balance. I like this one better any way.

I like that 2nd one much more than the 1st one.

I agree^^^^

What lens are you using??

I agree too. The first one is too busy--the subject doesn't stand out from the background. It also seems soft. The second one is sharp and the composition is a lot nicer.

All are with the 70-200 f/4L.

Adam & Wengler - thanks
