Does anyone have an opinion on the exposure? I want to go for a darker look, but the skin is bugging me because it looks gray to me. Of course when I bump the exposure I dislike how neon white it is.
 
Is the photo supposed to be funny?
 
I assume these are self-portraits, based on the images I see on Flickr. The light appears to be primarily blue sky, with you being in the shade. As such, there is a rather bluish colour cast. As a collage, two things stand out for me - the focus is off on the left and right images, compared to the center one (at least the three should have the same degree of sharpness or blurring), and the boundary between images could be blurred to give the illusion they are one image. Alternatively, present them as a tryptich with each image distinct. If you have photo-editing tools, you may want to consider masking off the subject from the background while making adjustments to the colour or brightness - and that may also apply to the rather dark roses.
 
You can adjust the white balance to give a warmer tone to the skin.
 
the main thing I'm bugged with is that the subject isn't proportional in every shot.

I would also go darker and it needs a bit more work in pp... at least for what I think it would be ok for this concept.
 
Interesting execution of a classic concept. Could use a bit of polishing.
-Exposure looks good across all 3 images.
-You could use a curves layer in PS to add warmth and eliminatine the 'gray skin' issue. It looks like the skin is a different tone in each photo.
-The focus is suspect: left image is front focused, centre image is tack sharp on the eyes, right image is back focused.
-The 3 images should be cropped exactly the same for the subject to stay the same size across all images.
All of these things can be tweaked without reshooting (with the exception of the focus)!
