I'm not sure if a test shot is meant for critique, or what, but I'll just comment on two technical aspects. The trees on the right seem abnormally soft, especially given that it seems the grasses immediately around them appear sharper. Secondly, f/22 is vast overkill at 16mm for this particular scene.

I did not mean anything by writing this picture was a test shot.
New camera, new lens. I just wanted to see how the lens could handle the diffraction. I returned the lens and replace it with Nikon 14-24mm.
Thanks :)
