It looks rather soft, Max. Try closing the aperture a bit.

I would but... I really hate diffraction :<

Like this picture. I'd like it more if it actually looked like it was in focus.

if you are able to reshoot, give HDR a try (or if you used hdr, try using a larger range of exposures). Also, lightzone might be able to give you a better relight of your shot.

keep it in f/8. That'll avoid the diffraction.
