It's fun playing with 1.4. I do it all the time with my Sigma 50mm. If I can I'll take all shots with that, obviously that doesn't work sometimes, but you can get really nice effects that add warmth to an image, as your shot shows :)
 
I've seen someone posting on my ISP forums, trying those photos where you take multiple shots of the same image at different aperture settings, then use a program to combine all the images for a greater range of in focus parts of the image. Not sure I could be bothered as it takes a while :D

Actually, reading up on that method, that's exactly what they were talking about, just explained it poorly. Nice look though, isn't it? The top hit on google has that image of the flowers. That REALLY stands out. Must. Not. Go. MF :D

Had another go, this time I'v gone for an even 'wider' angle, would have been an extreme wide angle but accidently refocussed so lost allot of frames...

To get an idea of the size of the sensor you would need to get this effect, each rectangle is approximately the size of the frame that a 35mm sensor provides.
So as you can see, you would need a sensor way bigger than MF...

Edit:
The red box indicates the approximate size of a MF frame relative to 35mm.
