When I first saw it I thought it over-sharp. Then when I went to the large
inmages I realised that what I thought was too sharp is in fact just a lot of
detail in the foreground. The highlights are very bright and blown in 
places. I
think that a bit more time in LR - or whatever - would be well-spent.
