Must be in color? Gimme a break. That's the letter of the law, not the spirit of the law- not what the challenge is about. It's about getting your exposure right under extreme lighting conditions. Now, if you want to tell me that the edges of my flowers are too dark for this challenge, I might agree with you... ;-)
Shot in a window with a piece of scrapbooking vellum as a background, which allowed the light to come through the background as well, lighting the petals from behind.

I like the composition and I like the way you have it cropped. But, the flowers seem disappointingly dark for a "light on white" theme. Love the mottled nature of the background.
