Just another shot of Sharp Park Pier in Pacifica

This helios is really sharp when you get the focus spot on. A lot sharper than my 50mm f/1.4.

Not an award winning shot by any means, but I just had to show you this guy. He is always hangin' out in the Backyard looking to eat something small.

He had a bunny on the run a few days ago, but mostly just scares the Bajeebees out of all the small Songbirds in the area, myself included as it almost ran into the sliding glass door trying to get the bunny.

The posted photograph (plus two 100x blow-ups) were taken with an EFS 17-85 mm lens.

The camera was mounted on a tripod, camera in AV mode (f=18, ISO = 400) with the widest field of view (17 mm). The mirror was NOT locked up and I did not use a remote shutter switch. The lens image stabilizer and auto focus were turned off. I took replicate shots at various manual focus settings; from infinity to about 1 meter. I selected the "best" photograph, based on background and foreground sharpness. Both the background and foreground appear to be somewhat "soft" in this example. Is this the best I can do with this lens (I guess pretty good); or can I do better with a different lens ? What lens would you recommend ?
