The beautiful back of a Gerber Daisy. Used Sunpak 383 with diffuser bounced off ceiling. In Photoshop using layers, made background white, adjusted levels, then painted the green around the flower and sharpened using FocalBlade.

the bad thing about cropping everything out is the hard edge that the eye sees. More even lightling or maybe less overcompensation at the top would make this look less plastic.
fine composition; the green stuff has a nice texture, the edges of the petals are your trouble area here - there is something funky about them. I'd suggest a very slight blur filter to softed them
The petal edges on the white backgound seem weird as if the image was overshaprened or if the background was cloned out. Yellow petals at top also seem washed out.
