Top one is best, but can't help but think they're lacking something, can't even figure out what

You pleased with results?

I'm not overly happy. The setting was okay, but a little bland.
I was only down there because my mate and his dad were fishing and I was keeping myself occupied with my camera. Playing with the new tripod, seeing what shapes I can get it into and messing with different filters.

Exposure is too long, slightly less blur would have made it look more realistic.

I don't think realism was the goal.

The effect is interesting and the execution seems alright, but on its own it's just not very interesting.

Maybe a smaller aperture for sharper background. Though looking at it, the sharpening issues might be down too poor resizing.

Here they are re-uploaded on flickr.

The quality difference is actually amazing. Why haven't I done this before?

This will be why so many people said my shots looked soft and out of focus.

Flickr all the way now!

If so many people have commented on sharpness, what did you think it was?

Might be worth to check if sharpening is set to 100% on your monitor...

I thought they were just being picky lol.
I've never really taken much notice of my shots after I uploaded them.

They look even more fake on flickr now you can see the sharpness on them, they look like very good CGI
