I am needing some help figuring out how to get crisp, clear, and most of all, in-focus pictures. I usually get a, what I think is a great photo, but when I blow it up to 100%, it turns out slightly blurry with nothing in particular in focus. I use a Cannon Rebel T3i. I have used both manual and automatic focus to try and get a clear photo, but I am always left with a partially focused finished product. My efforts include: using a tripod with a timer to eliminate all human elements, manual mode, aperture priority, shutter priority, and automatic mode. The only setting that seems to help is automatic mode...not my preferred setting to say the least. My last ditch effort was cleaning the camera and all my lenses. It helped a bit, but not enough. Does anyone have any thoughts or experience to share?

Tell us some of your photo metadata including lens focal length on a shot, shutter speed, focus method (AI, one shot focus, etc.) IS on/off, tripod or not, If you can post a photo with all this info, we can try to troubleshoot it for you.

My original photo (which I will re-post in this comment to keep things simple) was taken with a tripod on aperture priority, ISO 100, shutter speed 3", f/16, and I had it on a self timer to eliminate shaking. I used a macro lens with a focal length of 50mm. Is that all the info you were needing?
