My son is growing his new plant from grandma. Saw it in the window and figured it was a good opportunity to continue my off-auto learning and post-processing with Lightroom.

Interested in overall opinions. Especially the 'final' image look & feel. I think I should have opened the DOF a little more to have all of the grass in focus.

I think you could use a bit more DoF, but it also depends what you are focusing on, the container is in focus. You might try bringing the subject forward more to seperate/isolate the background more. Might want to straighten the overall image also, looks like it dips to the left.
