It's a little over sharpened imo but otherwise a nice bif shot. It has great detail and color, well done!

Thanks for your critique! I'm getting used to this sharpening thing, this is very helpful information

Just for your knowledge, start low on the sharpen slider and slowly increase it. When things start to appear a little on the digital side with lines, edges, looking like sharp cracks then back off until that appearance goes away. I also do do that while @ 100% viewing. Everything (lines, detail) should appear smoother and natural, less 'dotted' in appearance. Have a great day, Mitch!
