Good highlight and shadow detail, I would be happy with those results.   
But this was not done at most contrasty time of the
day, right ?   Do you think that jpg would remove some of the hightlight detail 
or it makes a difference only in shadows ?  You have
some realy nice pictures on photo.net by the way.

is no comparison between jpeg and RAW. It's like night and day. Here's a shot I 
did yesterday to test the 28/3.5 for another member.
It includes snow in bright sun and heavy shadow under a bench. You'll find 
detail in the snow and plenty of information in the
sahdow. It was shot in RAW, and processed in PSCS. A bit of additional 
adjustment was done with the Shadow/Highlight tool in PS
after conversion. There isn't a slide film in the world that can give you that 
much latitude, and I would guess that you'd have to
scan a negative film and post-process to get a comparable result. But that's my 
opinion. Others may differ. Here's the shot, which
is quite ugly by the way :-).
