Default Help save my dragonfly :)

Hi,

I went down to a park yesterday, and took some photos of some tree sculptures (amongst other things). One of those was this dragonfly

Canon 500D + 50mm/1.8
Aperture 1/4.0
Exposure 1/200 s
ISO 200

I really like the angle of the sculpture, but the sky is totally flat, and the background is a but busy. All comments welcome

EDIT: Actually, I found out about the Orton Effect today, and tried it out. I quite like it; it gets rid of the power line/pylon problem and dimishes the Thames Water sign. What do you think?
