Nice composition. The dark green background enhances the composition. The details are nice. Thanks for sharing.

Am wondering why this is not appearing sharp to my eyes. May be it is a long day today. Why partial metering?

Cheers,

When I used Evaluative Metering, it was exposing for the whole image area and the whites were getting overexposed. I could have obviously countered that by using Exposure compensation but preferred to try partial metering.

The upper petals look a bit unsharp to me as well as they are further behind than the ones at the bottom and not completely covered by f/9.
