Jan, Very nice shot.
Here is one of my first successful HDR shots. If I recall, It ranged from +2 to -4ev, 7 shots

Of course, I like it as a picture more. Other than maybe setting the picture style, it came out of the camera just as it looks now.

Thanks for sharing,

The image I used as an example of backfocusing in the AFMA thread seems like a good candidate for this one as well (the size reduction here masks the fact that the focal plane is behind the eye, despite using spot AF on the eye). It was shot with the 70-300mm DO lens, which due to the diffractive optics really benefits from increasing both the contrast and the sharpness during post processing. I also cropped and changed the orientation, and pushed the saturation a bit to brighten the subject and also add some 'pop' to the little ladybug on the underside of the lily pad.
