New Camera, New Evo shots
Good camera. Suggestions:
1. See if you can pick up a copy of Peterson's "Understanding Exposure":
http://www.amazon.com/Understanding-...9458639&sr=8-1
This book really helped me get along to that whole mysterious world. I'm not knocking your photos - they are good, but since you said you're still learning.
2. Pick up a good speedlight for your Canon. I always recommend purchasing from www.keh.com as you can buy new and good used equipment from them and their service is second to none. I've bought 3 lenses, 2 flashes, and an extension tube from them. Our professional photographer at my old job turned me onto them. Plus, they'll send you a monthly catalog...
3. Since it is digital, experiment and have fun...you'll always improve (I know I still am).

Since you're shooting a silver car, you'll want to manually overexpose the shot so that the exposure comes out correct. If you let the camera expose the image, they will come out dark.
Here's how the viewfinder looks:
If you leave it in auto mode, it'll stay in the center. If you shoot in M it'll be all over the place. To left, underexposed (dark); to the right, overexposed (bright). On a silver (or bright color) vehicle, you'll want to get the settings so that it's about 1/3rd to 2/3rd stops overexposed so you want your exposure bar to be set about here:
Here's how the viewfinder looks:

l---l---|---l---l - 0 +

awesome car and nice pictures
I'm going to put an evo viii front bumper on my car with a similar lip set up but I'm cutting out the mitsu triangle
what kind of dog is that?
