    How can I improve on these

    Was out & about yesterday & took some OK pics of a Hobby. I'm using a Nikon D7100 1.4 converter & 300mm lens. I feel that the pics are Ok - But feel that they're lacking in clarity & sharpness. How can I improve? or am I being too critical? Any advice would be much appreciated!:t:
