Great shot!

If you can top or match this shot later on down the line then Wow!!!

For such shots though I'm surprised you'd use a 35 other than it happened to
be on the camera at the time which is a good enough reason to use it to me
most the time.
But a gold mine thing kind of stuff with a 50 you'd need less cropping.
If you had a 50. Or anything longer than a 35
Which I'd think would give you a higher magnification and a better working
distance.... If you ever find such nice March buds again.
