The church pic almost looks as it came from a pinhole camera.
Care to tell any details?

Sure, it was shot at at 1/640 sec, f-13 with a focal lenght of 55mm and ISO
setting of 1600 (sky was overcast, at 2:20pm). It was then processed using
Jasc Paint SHop Pro 8 to render it in grayscale and to soften the focus.

Did you try it without softening the focus? My impression of the picture as
displayed is that the softening probably isn't an improvement. It reminds me a
bit of some of the stuff Ansel Adams shot with his Brownie at around twelve
years old. Looking back at those early photos during his professional career,
Adams became a sharpness fanatic.

I just put up a new site with more space for publishing than was available
