Hello,

For all pictures, you have focus, exposure, white balance (colour temperature) and composition problems.

[Naige28933759vj2u]

Thank you for your answer. I checked the histogram and didn't touch the overexposure and underexposure areas on both sides. I don't know how to improve it. Can you please give me some advice?

For example:

You need to do this in your editing software.

The exposure and histogram should be more like this:

Focus begins at the camera.  I'm not sure what you can do about that except to reshoot with faster shutter speed or tripod.   Shapening images in post produces unwanted side effects that could make your images worse, not better.

That's true...The focus is basically irretrievable... Could you help me take a look at the photo of the two birds? I don't feel like it's out of focus... Could you give me some advice? Thank you!

I like the bird photo, but it is unfortunately not in sharp focus. Zoom in between 100-200% and you will see that neither the eyes or the wings are in sharp focus. This could be the result of shutter speed that was too slow for the moving birds, or from camera motion or a combination of both. When shooting moving animals, I use the high speed continuous shooting and AI Servo modes which improve the chances of getting a frame that is in focus.

I see. Thank you so much!  will continue to practice 🙂

Hi as far as this image goes there are some things that weren't done before pressing the shutter, the f stop (aperture) was way too low, the shutter speed was a little slow. it is really hard to recover anything with a Jpeg hopefully you have a raw file for the shot with some practice you may be able to recover this image.

Thank you for your information. Shame, I don't have raw format:(  it is a lesson. Will do it better next time:) have a good week!
