Just a short post to show that just a small difference like cropping and rotating a photo can really improve the overall quality of an image. With this particular photo I've cropped to improve the composition of the image, placing a little bit more emphasis on the shadows, and cropping out the majority of the darker parts in the background seems to have given the photo a little bit more contrast and makes the shadows seem darker. You can also see some finer details, like the small 'hairs' on the leaves around the closed daisy and the moss. I also rotated the photo to slant the grass more - I wanted to place emphasis on the larger blade of grass as it was crossing the photo and I wanted it to look more interesting. Below is the final edit of the photo where you can really see the detail.
