Photos can be blurry due to various reasons:
1. Camera Shake.
2. Low Light.
3. Auto-Focus Errors.
4. Motion Blur.
5. Shutter Speed.
6. Lens Quality.
7. Depth of Field.
8. ISO Settings.
9. Aperture Size.
10. Camera Settings.
11. Vibration or Wind.
12. Subject Movement.
13. Dirty Sensor.
14. Lens Stabilisation.
15. Improper Focusing Technique.
16. Software Processing.
17. Optical Aberrations.
