Out of focus rejection

When I tried uploading this picture I got a message saying that the picture was too small.  I had to manipulate it to make it bigger.  Could that have caused the "out of focus" effect?  I would love any input as I am just starting out.  I only signed up here to get the feed back and try to learn something

Yes.

Blowing a picture up larger is almost always a bad idea. It will always appear to lose quality.

Thanks man I appreciate you getting back to me. Like I said I'm just starting to get into photography, I figured outside of studying the best thing to do is shoot

It is a beautiful image.

As to file size, you have to be careful if you are cropping an image down. Also, it is best to shoot with the largest file size your camera / device allows. My camera is only 10mp and I have to be very careful with cropping and resizing.
