Not the flowers again... Well, OK, you're new. Everyone is allowed to take shots like this once in their life. Now post something interesting! And don't event think about your pets!

Sadly I am completely uninteresting.. therefore I take uninteresting pictures.

And I have no pets.

So all I have are flowers, or cars.

I'd try maybe zooming in on the flowers a little bit more and not centering them in the frame. Play with composition a little bit and see what you come up with. The colors are pretty, but underexposed or over, i cant tell, but it looks like you photographed everything on a cloudy day. Are you filtering?

Also; you've got to have more around you to photography than flowers and cars. There are no buildings around you?

Agreed. Everyone goes through a stage where they take pictures of flowers, sunsets, and pets. Good to get it out of your system early. Some people never stop.

I recommend looking up some photos by well known, well respected photographers, figuring out what you like, and then try taking photos like that. I'm a big fan of street photography, myself.

(Pro Tip: If in your exploration, you find you really like the photography of William Wegman, just shoot yourself. And I don't mean with your camera. He never got out of the "pets" stage...)

I bet you could brighten the colors by removing some of the cloud glare with a C-PL filter.

Not that I expect you have one...
