soooooo, more photography practice...thoughts? Hey all, I posted these in appearance as well, but I know some of you Multi Media boys dont stray from here alot 
..No more auto, took these at night and played around with the shutter speed, iso, aperature(sp?), and so on. Just a canon 3.2mp, so be nice. Cant wait for a new camera.
all comments welcome as usual. good bad or indifferent.

Pretty good pics man! Keep up the good work, the more pics you take the better you get. Read around on different sites, pick up a camera mag with tips and tricks.
But I do like these pics dude!
This one stood out on me, and so I did a little Photoshop of it:

I almost always leave my ISO at 100, my shots are mostly still shots, the few rolling ones I'll put it on auto ISO. But I'll set a little bit lower shutter speed to see wheels in motion.
For the pics in this thread I'd have a higher f stop with alot of shutter speed like 15 seconds or so. I like to try to make everything in focus.
Oh, here is a really good tip that I found. Use the timer for taking those longer shutter shots, that way you won't (((bump))) the camera when you hit the shutter button (unless you have a remote shutter button).
Always take two shots everytime that way in case one might come out blurred. Play around angles like you have done but make the car more in the center of the frame, and find cool locations. When you find a good shot that you like go to town on the different setings like white balance, f stop, shutter speed and exposure. Try alot of different combo's, and when you're done, upload them to your PC and see the difference between all the setting you were messing with.
Make aure you get a deacent tripod that it pretty strong for those long exposure shots (like 30 sec shots at night).
Peace,
Craig.
