Lovely colours. nice flowers but maybe needs little more depth as well as a focal point. Currently my eye follows the stem to the yellow flower and all Im met with is a yellow pettal/s...

The colors are what instantly attracts the eye towards the composition. The red and yellow hues are vibrant. A slightly above average shot in which the visual appeal could be stronger. The DOF (Depth of Field) so that not only does the flower in the foreground remain in sharp focus but those in the backdrop do too. Going with a higher aperature (8 or higher) and slower shutter speed to let enough light will accomplish that. Your lighting is fine with the flowers nicely illuminated to show varience in the shades of yellow. Lastly, I think the visual appeal would be stronger if the flower in the forefront exactly matched the diagonal lines of the horizontal composition. The stem is right about in the center of the bottom left corner it would be nice if the open face of the flower exactly faced the center top right corner to match; then there would be alignment on the 'unseen' diagonal line.

Nice colours here, I like the yellow against the red. I think you've chosen the right focus and perspective here, it makes it that much more interesting than all the front on flower shots you usually see.

You have however been let down by the condition of the flowers themselves, they look as if they are starting to wilt and die with the edges of the petals starting to curl. I'll bet they were brighter and more vibrant originally.
