Great lines in this one Richard, and lovely green. I'd prefer the foreground to be in focus too.

I like how the dark lines of the branches contrast with the light greens and the water droplets are a nice addition. I do agree with John in that a little more needs to be in focus.

Well composed, Richard..

Tough comp for nailing a point of focus to give a "right" dof. As it's presented here, It would be nice to see a little bit more in focus, especially the dew on the fern fronds in the fg. The frond to the left, in the near fg, would look good in focus, too. But I dare say, it doesn't look like you had the room among all the ferns to dial in more dof without getting too much of the bg in focus. What a challenge.
