My advice is to use Lightroom. The first one is underexposed but if your iso settings were low enough you can correct that in Lightroom. The other two are over exposed. For me, I expose for the highlights and then correct in Lightroom. For your camera, the lower the ISO the better.
the sweet spot for focus is not wide open. If your lens is a 2.8 try an f8 for the sharpest image.

Are these hand held? if so use a tripod as this will allow lower ISO and slower shutter speed with f-5.6 or 8
[quote=Franku]I have read all of our advices and, in doing so, have learned much. Your explanations and comparisons are far easier to understand that reading a manual.
This afternoon I will again try to put your teachings into practice. I will also attach today's photos to yesterdays and hope that you give another outstanding critique.
Thanks again for your advice on yesterdays photos.[/quote
