Quite a few errors here that I'm now aware of, including having my VR off on my lens. *facepalm*

Yeah, this one doesn't pass.  Too much motion blur.

Thanks for confirming that! So many errors made. Ugggggh. I was afraid to push my ISO because at a measly 400 it’s very noisy and seems soft to me.

Quick question...how do you discern motion blur from just an out of focus photo? I realize they are both crap, but I'd like to learn from mistakes. I'm going to assume this particular photo is not a focus issue, but a motion blur issue because I don't see any area of the photo that's clear and crisp, and the metadata tells me my SS was too slow for this lens. That and I know my VR was turned off on the lens.

Motion blur is literally directional.  So if you see blur more in one direction than another, it's motion blur.
