C&C

I'm new to the photography scene, any tips or tricks would be much appreciated.

These first two were taken on a P&S before I got my DSLR, and they are all unedited because I don't have a photo editor that I like at the moment.

1st picture is out of focus.
the background in third picture is stealing a lot of attention from the tree. there are also random colors that appear that distract the viewer's attention, such as that pink thing on the right and the pile of clothes on the bottom left.

actually all of these are out of focus.

The composition in #2 is rather nice but the background is a bit distracting. I see that you manually adjusted the white balance in #2, but you used auto white balance in #3. I am really disappointing. (Joking, ignore me) Anyway, try closing the aperture, so less light is absorbed and the sky should become more clearer instead of being white.

May I ask why you used ISO-1000 for #3?

1) Try using manual focus instead of auto.
2) More manual white balance.
3) Try closing the aperture ring.
4) Sort out the ISO.
