Nice! Love the vibrancy and the bokeh.

You'll need to use your tripod because this will require a slow shutter speed.
Also, using a remote or a 2 second timer helps keep the camera from shaking during the exposure. -- Anything that excites me for any reason, I will photograph; not searching for unusual subject matter, but making the commonplace unusual." ~ Edward Weston My RedBubble My pleasure!

The white petals do echo the theme "purity." The white writing makes it absolutely clear that it's the white we are to focus on as the expression of purity. And those white petals couldn't be better arranged if they were combed with a brush.
I've never attempted this sort of macro shot myself. I have no idea if it's difficult or not, but I suspect it's difficult. It came out nicely for sure! The fuzzy orange, white, green, blue elements add just the right touch of visual interest without detracting from the foreground.
The overall effect is "soft" rather than "striking." So... this image shows that "purity" can be "soft" but powerful. Nicely done!
