You have captured the detail but lost the comp because the leaf/grass blade is washed. Couple of suggestions:
Camera Suggestions:
1. When taking shots in extreme light, consider setting the Exposure Value (EV) a couple of stops down, say -0.7 to -1.0 or even higher. This will underexpose the shot and you can adjust the exposure in the editing program. This will help you to keep from blowing the exposure.
2. If the sun is directly overhead, use a polarizing filter as this can help.
3. Not sure why you had the ISO set to 200 unless that is low as the camera goes, as bright as it was should be 100 or lower if you have the capability.
Editing Suggestion:
1. See mod for details.

thank you both for leaving comments.
Greg, that is a remarkable piece of "recovery" - thanks for the detailed information, I must have a play myself as I think I could learn a lot.
The ISO 200 was a reaction to the strong light and shade - I set it for the aperture whilst retaining reasonable shutter speed and then "grabbed" the shot as the opportunity arose
