I realise it's your choice not to tick my "during voting" comment as helpful but your 0.8 second shutter speed vindicates what my eyes saw. For a stationary object this should be crisp with oodles of DOF. It just isn't as crisp as I'd have expected from a still. Often that's due to not using mirror lockup even if you have the DSLR on a tripod, the G forces of the mirror slamming make the camera wobble during exposure. That is a massively good Macro lens. Give it another shot :)

Pity this is wobbled, OOF or it would have been an 8. Got a 6.

That's a big pen cap. Nice details

Meets the criteria, but the composition feels odd to me.
