Yes I agree about the background but it is not always possible to get the ideal background, so you have to make do. If you can't get a reasonable backdrop edit in your program and slighlty blur out the background.
On your photo I used the magic wand, being careful I didn't get the stem I then gave the background 2.6 Gaussian Blur not enough to make it look false but just enough. What do you think
