At F11, we might be seeing sharpening to compensate for diffraction
limiting. That usually tightens the edges up, but you lose the texture
within. The flowers, in this specific photograph have a waxy gloss to them,
which makes them especially difficult to show micro-contrast. That said,
micro-contrast is the major fatality to LCE. LCE is, by no means, a
universal solution.
The flowers are out here (finally), and I hope that tomorrow I can take a
few pictures... I have plenty of film, plenty of cameras, plenty of
lenses--but unfortunately not a plenty of time. We have a nice arboretum
here that I go walking.
