    Like all processing the beauty is in the eye of the processor and if you like it then great. The flower doesn't look different on my monitor but I can see that you've added a vignette. For my tastes I prefer the original but would bring up the brightness of the flower.

    I completely agree with hoddo in that if you like the resulting image, then that should be good enough for you. If you question the image, that suggests something is amiss. From my perspective, I would go easy on the vignette. I would have also opened up the aperture a bit to further blur the background. Or, next time you might want to try holding a black card just behind the flower to isolate it from its background. Just some ideas... keep experimenting with LR4. I think you will come to really like it.
