The Short Answer
First of all, by the time you see a pro's work, it's been through a lot of processing, like PhotoShop and the like. Cropping for the optimal composition, bumping colors up, enhancing clarity, etc, beyond what the camera itself is capable of. And it takes a lot of time to develop an eye for composition, that is, the best balance of objects in the image, how to make your subject stand out while de-emphasizing potential distractions. Should this subject be captured from a low, middle or high angle? Where's the light source and how is it going to affect the final image? Other variables are camera settings. ISO affects sharpness, but lower values increase exposure time, so can't be used for things in motion, unless you're intentionally going for a blurring effect. There are lots of other variables, but those are the ones off the top of my head. I'm not a pro, by the way. Maybe one will drop in and do a better job of explaining.
