 tweaked in DPP. Then in CS2 , I rotated it slightly to straighten, levels, sat, contrast, cropped, USM, resized, and another slight usm pass, then saved for the web.

Note - shot to look like a macro, but i used my 400mm lens to stay away from the darn stings...

That blade of grass in the foreground is distracting to me.
