Cropped, different treatment and different effect. I wonder how they compare. The second version of the digitally modified version is also in the Out of the Box forum.

I have yet to get a good image of this type but it is on my to do list this year...hoping the D3 and a better hi ISO range will allow me to get one without using the flash which has messed it up for me so far.
I like the treatment that you have given to this image Steve. The crop has certainly enhanced the composition and the emphasis is now on the two main dew drops that look quite stunning!! Now if we could just 'erase' that slight blur on the right :D
I guess I could clone in and extend the leaves to obliterate the OOF part of the plant. I don't do that for pure nature images. With the tiny movements available,laying on the dirt side of a gully, resting on dirt and hopefully getting any kind of composition, I thought this was pretty good. Next time, if there is one, I hope to do better.

Hi Steve, I like this a lot but the 0-0-f leaf on the frame edge is an image-wrecker...

1000 times better. And excellent work on the re-post. Plus, I like that the re-post is a tad darker.
