I have a feeling I'm on to something, but I think there's something not right. Maybe the framing doesn't work. This was one light on the rights, reflector on the left and 5 shots stacked. I know there are little specks of pollen on the petals but I kind of like them :).

Heya,

I think it's a nice composition. Maybe a little more pop to the color?

Very best,

looks great to me, maybe try to flip/rotate it to put the center in the bottom left or right corners?

Came out well but agree something could be better- perhaps the light is a little flat ?

I like the composition.

Like the others I think it could do with a bit more pop. If you used relatively flat lighting you can probably afford to turn up the post processing contrast. Also see if the black and white points can be pulled in without clipping.
