p.1 #1 · Santa Cruz shots

I recently went to Santa Cruz and tried my hand at shotting some birds...I usually shoot buildings and the city life type of stuff.
I would really like to know what needs to be done to get some shots as crisp and sharp as some of yours.

Hard to make a comment or suggestion when you don't offer up any information. For example, what lens did you use, what ISO, f-stop, shutter speed, did you post proc, crop etc...? I don't find any of the basic EXIF info in your files so it must have been stripped out during conversion from raw.

oh sorry......i forgot that the conversion took that away......
Both shots...f5.6
1/1600
ISO 400
focal length 185mm

Just got the camera and learning to shoot panning shots. So to practice the actual capturing of an image I used auto mode on my D40.
There was nothing done to either photo these are just converted and posted.....
I'm really trying to get a hang of this but finding any help is getting a bit frustrating.
