i am getting more into photography and am really interested in wildlife/nature photography, i cannot for some reason take landscape pictures, i just cant get it right. here is one looking down to where i live on the somerset levels,to put in perspective, the hill you see in the backdrop is 110 mtrs.

maybe - try using filter->unsharp mask after downsizing. Should help a bit.

For landscape my advices are more less - good wide angle lens with polarization filter (makes colors more staturated (especially sky), decreases overbrighted shines, use high shutter value (f8.0+), adjust white balance accordingly to the weather and light conditions (AWB doesnt works sometimes 2 well).

that first froggy looks nice, i do prefer nature photography, is it a pet frog you have?
thanks for the advice pan, the trouble at the moment is i am torn between getting a nice macro lens or something that is more functional for landscaping and distance work. i think for my interests the macro lens will take it at the moment using standard EFS 18-55mm.
everyday i learn more about using my camera and i am still a noob Happy learning is great fun though.
