Seconds after taking this shot, at f/4, I changed the f-stop to 29 and captured these blossoms with the environment in focus (yesterday’s posting). At f/4 focus is a challenge and I was not happy with the detail of the foreground blossom.

I am in the experimentation phase of learning the new camera, so in spite of the 100% file size increase I turned on the Dual Pixel Raw feature. The two photos are from the same file. My impression is the adjustment improved the foreground flower details. Is it my imagination?
My old eyes can detect only a tiny shift in hue between the two images … each stunning!

I need to try it with the diaphragm wide open (i.e. a low f-stop).

Yes, I agree with Jazz – the second pic is a tad brighter, the green of the leaf especially.
