Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.

An eye-catching capture of this flower with its shiny appearance! The shininess gives the flower a sense of rigidness, as if it is made of painted metal. Your DoF works well with your simplicity “theme”.

That is an excellent way to think about photography. We sometimes want to include too much and should pare it down.

Both the shallow dof and the use of negative space have created a perfect image to demonstrate the theme of simplicity.
