I was going for the plant, but some of the shots ended up with the background in focus instead. I've had this type of foreground/background dichotomy on other occasions -- Once when I was photographing a leaf with holes in it. In that case there were things to like in both the foreground (leaf) in focus shot, and the background (ground below) in focus shot.
In this case it's less visually distinct, but these two were lined up so similar that I thought I'd make a collage.
