you can also try the macro function on your camera. Most people do not know about it. It looks like a little tulip and is good for taking pics of things up close. It might help get some of the blur out, if you do not know how to resize.
There are programs to resize, some are simple some are more complicated. Irfanview is free and i use it for quick resizes. Photoshop is what i use for more complicated peices and it also can resize.
Goodluck thanks for sharing your pictures. Remember, try using the macro (picture of a tulip flower) it can help you get the shots off a bit better.
