In focus?

Wasn't sure what to blip today as photography wasn't coming to the top of my list of things to focus on. By mid afternoon I decided I'd try and take a few images before the light went totally - so todays photographs were a bit of an experiment to see how close I could focus with my Panasonic GI using the 14-45 lens.

Well the truth is, not very close and what's more when it seemed to be in focus on the screen it wasn't in focus through the lens and I wasn't sure which of the two images to believe!
Finally I tried adjusting the diopter (something Horrigans has had to do this week - must be the season for it!!) Well that seemed to work and I managed to get a clearer image, but still wasn't too sure I'd got it right.

And then I decided to use the lens-baby and use the 10x macro convertor - I'm still working on getting the right amount of focus and blur with this lens (and focus in the right place!)
