I like the details and colours.

This is very likeable. The only quibble is that the background colours are almost as saturated as the foreground. Perhaps a little less saturation or a slight change of hue so that the interesting part of the image stands out more?

Cool!  I like the foreground and the background equally saturated.  I think the blur you added is sufficient to bring out the subject, and the equal saturation makes it seem camouflaged, but not enough to miss it.  I might try it vertical, to see how it looks.

Thanks.
Applied negative selective saturation and luminance.
It was actually shot vertically.
And the blur was from f4.0.
Wanted to do some focus stacking, and macros, though, it started to rain again, sigh...
