Hey Laura

Well done with your first entry, you scored higher than I did with my first.

I've looked at your settings and with a shutter speed of 1/32s I think the focus problem is likely to be due to camera shake.

Try aperture priority and set to something like F16 or higher to get a better depth of field and hence more focus from foreground to background.

Personaly I prefer to use a lower ISO as well to reduce noise.

The only issue with what I'm sugesting is that you would most likely need to pop your camera on a tripod or at least balance it on something and use the timer.

Hey and now you have some software try using an Unsharp Mask

Nice idea and good colours but I'm not keen on the lack of DOF as I can't tell where to look.

Nice. Ice storm? Was it the end? Not so sharp for some reason.

Lovely scenery but needs more 'pop'? Perhaps play with curves on this one?

Beautiful and masterly done image displaying great photographic skill and an excellent eye for detail and composition. Looks almost like a painting..you sure it's not a photo taken of a painting? he he...just kidding. I especially love the frost on the tree branches and on the grass.
