I always shoot with minimum camera sharpness setting and do USM in post
processing so that I can control the pixel width and intensity. If your
image was shot at F2 then there could be not enough DOF/sharpness, it
require a larger amount of USM or even more than one USM at different pixel
width. I have no experience in FM may be it can do a simpler and more
effective job. But as always, I prefer basic adjustments over the turn key
solution.

Perfectly proper, C.H., as far as I'm concerned......always willing to
learn. I looked at the original jpeg, unedited except by the camera, shot
at f2, and the halo is on the insect at 200%. I usually try to go light on
the sharpen and Focus Magic, but the halo is greater in the final image.
This was edited in Sagelight. Any suggestions are welcome.

Nice composition and color but I don't know if it is proper to mention the
sharperning halos and sharpen/NR or JPEG artifacts here.
