Knight if you read my sig take this for what its worth...like the colours but find it a tad dark on the underside, but that might be what you where looking for. thanks for sharing

Knight, I would agree this is dark under the flower. But I think the thing here is that the subject is centered in the frame which usually does not work well. The shadows under the petals should be avoided and you could do that by using a reflector on the left side bouncing the sunlight into the left , eliminating the shadows and lighting the left side of the subject. Just a white board would do. your dof is good and the flower stands out nicely from the rest of the scene.

Thanks for the help here StuntBoy and Gary , its appreciated all this helps me better understand the Art of taking pictures :)
