            0005 or 0009, I'm leaning towards 0009. The sunburst is the primary
subject of the image, the eye-catcher, and the deeper contrast of 0009
enhances this a bit more. But yes, the color of the leaves is better in
0005.

            In 0009 the flare jumps out a bit more too, but buried in the leaves
as it is this is hardly a major bad point.

            Bug in the sky in 0005?
