Weather awful and light even worse so have been going through some files from a couple of years ago.

Panasonic GM3. Pentax Asahi Super Tacuma 100mm Macro. Handheld

1/125 @ f11 ISO 160

Great composition with the skipper and Thistle.. Seems a bit "crunchy" though as though a bit too much sharpening. How much sharpening are you doing. can you send me a copy of the original ?- or post one ?
Cheers

I love these cute little guys -- we have them too -- or some equivalent. Love the colors, but wish there had been a little more on the bottom. Feels crowded there.

I think you have a good image David but something is awry with the processing, I would suggest revisit the raw file and
1. Reduce the crop slightly
2. Reduce contrast very slightly
3. Lower the highlights
4. Review the sharpening it looks a little too much
5. Apply a little NR to the background.
