Primula vialii

I know this isn't the clearest of shots, the wind is so bad, and if I didn't do it now the flowers will be gone for ever, they only have these two little flowers.

It would be a good shot if it would be sharper. You should use narrower aperture to increase DOF. To reach it you should increse ISO settings or decrease the exposure time. You can change both parameters together. I cannot see the value of the exposure time. Could you tell me what was that?
Hi Gábor I'm sorry that I cant tell you what the exposure time was I have taken a few shots of this photo I may upload another one thats slightly better it was just the colours that I liked, thanks for your comments and help as always. Regards Trixie

Hi Trixie, if you are shooting without a tripod you can use the auto ISO setting to make sure you get a high enough shutter speed to grab the shot.
Do you have the in camera image stabilisation turned on as well?

I like the compo and the contrasting colours Trixie.
I'm not sure if the k-x is the same as the k-r but if you go into the menu on page four you have a 'shake reduction' (I think this is the image stabilisation mentioned by Jim).
You could try an experiment and pop the camera on a tripod and set it up for auto and take some pictures of a stationary object and see what they come out like. You might find your AF needs fine tuning.
Kind regards
