Looking at some of my photos in PS and Bridge, I am surprised and disappointed that they appear a little soft. I am using a Canon Rebel XTi with a 24-105L f4 /IS lens. Below are links to 2 of my raw photos taken with this equipment. Both shots were taken with a polarizer, manfrotto tripod and shutter release and IS was off. When I look at the pictures in 'fit on screen' mode they look crisp/sharp. When I look at them in 'print size' mode, they still fare well to my eyes. When I go to 100% view, they look soft. Even if there were parts that were out of focus, I feel that some part of these photos would have been sharp...
I didn't feel that converting these files from the original capture would convey what I was seeing. If there is a better way to let people see this, let me know.
So is it the camera, the lens, or me? Any advice or direction is appreciated.

Per request. If you have the time, I left the full raw links above. Not sure why they only came down as partials. I double checked and was able to retrieve them... Thanks for trying though.
This is an 600x800 chunk of the photo
This is a resize of the whole photo
