Even though you didn't make any sense at all Aaamm:-) I think I know wot you're trying to over politely say. I think you're saying that this shot would work better for this subject if it was sharper. Which means it's not sharp enough dunit?:-) Well Aammm you're 100% correct:-) This bleeding plant isn't big enough for a close up without getting the pot in, so I may have got a tad too close for the focus. I mean how can I show a mean & hungry fly trap in a cissy pot:-) I will give it another try or look for another masterpiece to shoot. I wonder if I make this a B&W shot which will turn it into one of those soft B&W ahrt shots:-)

Good photo mate. Since it involves sharp objects maybe the photo should be sharp too (not implying it's not sharp, but for the purpose of the subject maybe it should. Hope that makes sense). Still very good mate.
