Thanks Ian & Richard for the feedback.
I was also disappointed with the sharpness of the mushrooms. I would have loved to have had a tripod with me as the lighting (dark from surrounding trees)was not ideal for handheld shooting, plus I was shooting in macro mode. I am only starting to get used to my camera plus I am a complete novice at photoshop. Thanks for the DOF tip, I have a habit of using the widest apature when looking for a shallow DOF. Now I realise I could have closed it down more and still acheived a satisfactory DOF.
