Not a bad subject to start with.
A few thoughts come to mind - the simpliest might be using a reflector -
gold will add a nice warm touch & brighten the scene some.
Don't know what lens or settings used but a longer lens would help some to
remove some of the distraction from the background due to a shallower depth
of field.
Of course flash would be the next step.

Subject: PESO - Mayflower
I always know it's spring when the mayflowers come out and I start
crawling around in the wet underbrush trying to get a good picture of
said mayflowers. I have a very hard time getting a shot I like. Partly
it's the contrast between the dark leaves and background vs the very
delicate, white/pink flowers. Partly it's all the rain and dew that
makes it hard to get a nice crisp photo. Partly it's me just being
particular. Anyway, here is the first try for 2011. Comments,
criticism, praise, and abuse are all welcome.
