The clouds are blue. That makes it look like you tried to edit the sky and messed up.

I think it looks different, but in a great way.

Dont like the composition though, looks to cut off.

Its an interesting composition. Flash appears too harsh for the subject... perhaps diffuse the flash with some tissue paper would improve the image.

I think there is a little too much sky above the flower. Maybe try cropping some of it out. Other than that, I think it looks sharp.
