An awesome shot. Perfect focus and sharpness AND Depth of field.
Without taking away anything from the competence and the skill in your execution, I must say this lens from Canon is a Gem.

Knowing how the MPE is hard to handle, that’s definitely an awsome shot, congrats.

From a beekeeper- A very good shot of a fuzzy little bee. The best head shot I’ve ever seen of a bee.
