Workshop Note
Cropped to remove the bright area from the top left, and make the floret fill the frame a bit better.

Used contrast masking to bring up the shadow detail a bit and reduce the brightness of the highlights a litte - NewLayerViaCopy, Desaturate, Invert, Blur/Gaussian 19px. Merge mode Overlay @ 100%.

Colours warmed up slightly - Levels, Red midpoint -1.20, Green -1.05.

I hope you like it :)
