Unfortunately, I find your photo under exposed and poorly composed. The main blossom grouping needs to stand out from the background which is exactly the same. Less DOF would certainly help by softenig it. As it is, when I 1st looked at your photo, I actually missed seeing the main blossoms as your subject matter.

Any Better?

It's getting there. Crop so that the blossoms are in the middle 3rd. That will eliminate a lot of those white blotches, as well as creating a more pleasing composition. Your still way under exposed. Increase the exposure at least 1 full stop to start with. Then adjust the WB to bring back the whites.

OK, how is this one
