Default Waiting for Spring II

This was one of several photos I took last weekend that I was happy with, although, honestly, I'll be happy when Spring finally gets here; 1/2 my "Walkabout" set is filled with lots and lots of brown.

Waiting For Spring II

I think about the only thing I might change is the spider web - there's a slight glare off of it right in the middle between the 2 ... whatever they are ... that shows up as just a "spot" on the smaller thumbnail (and may show as a spot on darker monitors). And, now that I'm thinking about it, maybe a different crop so it's not quite so centered - but I'm really torn on that, given the amount of space the subject fills.

Taken with my 14-45mm lens, and my +10 close-up filter.
Exif info:

Aperture: f/16
WB: Daylight
Focal Length: 45mm
No Flash
EV: -1
Shutter Speed: 1/40 second
ISO: 100

There's also a second photo, with the other "puff" as the focal point here. (note: Waiting for Spring I is the original orientation; I rotated CCW for II).

Thoughts? Comments?
