Cracks, Spirals and a Sign

I have been trying to understand why my photos aren't as sharp as I'd like them to be and I cannot figure it out. I thought I would research a bit and then try a few settings but I am still not happy with the outcome. Guess I'll have to research more than a bit and give it another go next week. Until then, here are a few photos I took out walking around town today that I do like.

This door was smaller than an entry door but not by lot. About 2 feet higher than ground level with no step and no windows close by. Must be a utility door of some sort. Enjoyed the cracks and the texture and colors. 

Interesting sign in an alley in Chinatown. The alleys are the best part!

This wall was my most favorite photo today. For some odd reason I just loved this crack, the texture and the color and without manipulation it goes from one corner to the other perfectly. I want to come back to this wall with a colorful umbrella or an orchid to add to the photo for contrast. I need to think of some small prop I can bring with me on these photo walks. 

This spiral staircase always gets my attention. I had to use the Free Distort feature on Pixlr to get the building in the background to look straight. Without Free Distort the photo just was not as nice. See below.

See how the lines are slanted? I don't like it...so I changed it.
 Wish everything in life was that easy, lol!

Happy Friday!!!
