You need to increase the DOF on all of these, you miss so much detail, they seen a little under exposed also.

These were taken a while ago when I just got a 70-200. It was afternoon and I didn't have a tri-pod so I choose to shoot wide-open rather then risk camera shake with smaller aperture. I was also unhappy with the ground, it was muddy and covered in duck feces, so thats why I use a shallow DoF

As far as being underexposed. I had just started using the D7000 so it took a while to get used to the metering.
