My favorite thing to shoot is sunsets and I've been bugged since I got my camera a month back that all of my pictures seem to have a lack of detail.
You can see two examples here:

When zoomed to 100%, it almost looks like noise, but the ISO is as low as possible, 200. Could it be the lens that I took the pictures with (AF-S 55-200 kit) or is my aperture too low, even though it's at F11. One other idea I have is that even with the 2 second timer, when I push the shutter down, it shakes a tiny bit and then seems to still be shaking when the picture is taken. I'm getting my remote in about an hour, so hopefully that will do something, but besides that I am stumped. The rest of my photos look very sharp, but the sunsets look horrible.
Any advice would be great. Thank you.
