Greetings everyone.

There's some really talented people here and I've learned a lot, over this past week, since I first found the forum.

I just purchased a new digital camera this week (I had a 1 megapixel for about a year now) and really want to start getting a little more serious about digital photography.

I was hoping to get some advice on this photo I took this afternoon, in between rain clouds.




I like the photo and what I was trying to capture, however, from those of you with more experience, would you suggest a different way of framing that would make this picture look even better?

Do you think it was neccessary to have the entire blade of grass in the shot? Should I have gotten even closer? Would the picture look better if the blade of grass was positioned differently in the frame?

Any helpful feedback would be welcomed.
