Thanks Lev! The FA50 macro is a very sharp lens, possibly my sharpest. However I missed the focus on the front couple of berries attempting to get the stems sharp.

I think you didn't miss because the center area is very sharp. Otherwise to have them all sharp you had to stop down for at least two or maybe three stops, which could make this image less pleasant, imho.

I agree. It is always an exercise of compromises.

Very interesting color reproduction, and yes, the FA 50/2.8 is razor sharp.

A nice capture and great colours too

Nicely composed. I might have cropped it a little tighter.
