Nice picture
Great colours, but a little soft.
friiskiwi what do u mean by "a little soft"? and thank you both for the comments.
agree with frisskiwi
Soft means it's not quite sharp, focus is a little soft.
I think that seeing you were using a macro lens you need a larger f number and longer shutter speed. Macros have a very shallow DOF which is why your image appears soft (not as sharp as it could be)
very nice shot author...good luck
