This is an interesting composition, with diagonal arrangement of flowers against a background that contrasts in color and tone. I like one flower "looking at me" and the other "demurely facing away". It's also good that all of both flowers are in sharp focus. Highlights in the flowers are blown out, though, perhaps as a consequence of the excessively powerful direct lighting. The shadows in the background, the unattractive brambles, the extra flowers in three places, and the virus on the leaves all are flaws. Think about what you're trying to say. If it's "beautiful", then it all should be beautiful. If it's "ugly" or "flawed", say so clearly.
