lol. indeed. but we ALL started somewhere. =p

OP, nice camera. I miss my Digital Rebel. =(

never shoot a car with a wide angle if you can help it.

you can get away with stellar images in bright light if you have to.

when shooting cars, 80% of your situations will not be ideal.

reflections will screw your exposure if you dont use manual modes.

dont be a wus, roll around on the ground and have fun.

Clouds will screw up your WB, shoot in Raw.

Use caution with black and/or white cars.

Here's a couple books you should check out that have general info on how to make use of your camera's features and composing good shots:

Learning to See Creatively
Understanding Exposure

Both are written by Bryan Peterson are pretty highly recommended.

the best way to learn any of it is to shoot.

There's also a lot of other groups on flickr about cars and automotive appreciation where you can get good advice. Here's a few of my contacts that love cars.

For me the photos are clear and shots where taken right..right angle and clear color..Congratulations and more power..

Car is sick! Shots are okay, but all I can say is keep shooting and try different things. You have heard from a few people already that we've seen these shots before. Get creative with your shots and then we might have more to say. Looks like your ps skills are pretty sick, now all you need is the right shots to work with. Keep it up.

Wow! Haven't posted in here in so long. Hopefully you'll be seeing more of me now that I have some free time.
