you right the focus is only on front leaf/flower. i may to close to focus distance
 
Aligns with my earlier opinion:

The 18.5mm renders ugly wide open, but is nice enough stopped down.

The 10mm has a certain brutalist appeal. The DOF is plenty wide so you tend to get a lot of busy details and very little softness (unless subject is really close) but I find that tougher, harder look works well for a lot of things.
 
Nice. Love Nikon 1 B&W. Which of the two do you prefer, after your time with them. I kept the 10mm as I liked the look of the pictures from it. I felt the 18.5mm gave me light but not much else.
