I think you are going after an interesting angle here. There are some technical issues that are holding this back though. If a re-shoot is possible I would suggest using a tripod. There are small ones available at Radio Shack or similar that are only about eight inches tall and cost about $10. This will give you two things. First, a shake free shot that's low to the ground. Second, you can set the aperture on your camera higher, say F11 or F13, this will increase your depth of field, meaning you can have more leaves in focus than just a few in the middle. It will also significantly slow the shutter speed down, maybe as much as 2 seconds, which is why you'll need the tripod. It is good to experiment and keep shooting!:thumbsup:
