Welcome to TE Wensheng. Very nice underbrush. I like the dark trees against the nice green and yellow. Well seen. I have tried a Photoshop modification but see that you did not activate Workshop. If you activate it I will send you what I did. In short, I cropped the photo 1/3 to the right and about 1/4 at the bottom, I also added a black border to match with all that black which I like.

This subject and lighting has great potential. Your observation is good to see the potential in this scene too.
However, what is your message? Dark, gothic and Blair Witch (then you need some grain and more forboding colors), or happy green and healthy (then you need some sunlight and some more happy greens).
This could go either way. I prefer dark and forboding myself.

Masses of wildflowers in Ohio are easy to find and hard to photograph because often the species of flowers are smaller. Many photographers curse the bluish tint leaves pick up when they reflect the sky but you seem to have brought it out to contrast well with the yellow flowers.
The one improvement I would like would have been to shoot from just a little bit lower to eliminate the two branches hanging down out of focus at the top.

very beautiful shot. the trees against the foliage make a great design of negative space. i would have liked the foreground to be in focus, or at least a bit sharper. the branches at the top are a bit distracting because they don't seem like they belong. (maybe it would work better if we would have seen the trunk that belongs to the leaves on the left side...)
