I really dont know anything about it tho mate, its just my thoughts from a random eye.

Maybe someone that knows a lot about photography might say different.

Nice pics tho

Bee isn't sharp - It never will be using cheap filters though - they rarely do a good job. If you want to shoot macro, get a dedicated lens.

The Sunset shot - the sun is blown out and everything else is a tad underexposed. A Grad filter would help with that.

Autumn - Only needs a bit of editing IMO - Your best shot out of the three. Slight exposure increase in the shadows and maybe a bit of sharpening will do it.

All a bit soft though.
