It looks a bit out of focus to me. And both the flower and the background have areas of severe over-exposure. Sometimes shooting into the sky can work, but it's definitely easier to get a well exposed shot shooting with other greenery, branches or trunk, or ground in the background to the exclusion of sky. Cheers, Tony

I had trouble finding the flower with all the white clutter in the background. Once I found it, all I could think was that I wished it filled more of the frame. There's a lot of out-of-focus stuff that doesn't add to the image in my opinion. The flower itself is OOF, while the tip of the twig and the expired flower thingies (top right) are sharp. Watch where your camera is grabbing the focus.
