[OM] How to Capture subtle colors

I have been taking pictures of this bright yellow flower
now for months. I have been disatisfied so far partly
because the thing that draws my attention to these things
is the very slightly orange portion of the petal. I have
so far failed to capture this aspect of the flower. Here
are some pictures to show what I mean.

I am using Kodak Royal Gold 100 on this.

I have considered the fact that I might be halucinating
the whole thing under the Texas sun, but have checked it
twice. 

So my questions are, what is the most likely problem?
(Film, Lighting,?) What can I do to compensate?

Thanks!
