im currently trying to learn how to use a dslr camera alot better, so any advice and critiques would be welcomed, and if anyone wants the original/clearer shots since the ones i posted are pretty soft, feel free to ask or message me for them, thanks!

I don't know why you would really need to use the reduce noise filter unless you set teh ISO really high? which is not necessary if you have a tripod.. less processing on the photos is always better
i really like the first picture.. i think it's the best of your set.. the other ones sorta look like snapshots..

Actually, you can use the timer button for now (does the original Rebel have one?). I recently picked up the remote and some other things, and got it Thursday. Yup, got the remote just for the long exposure shots.
Pick up the Canon Lens Work Book also. Interesting information in there!
Let me make just one more suggestion. Please do your self a favor and pick up the 50mm f1.8 prime. It's only $69 (dropped in price at B&H Photo), and you'll see the big difference in Image Quality. I kid you not. I took one shot, and I was blown away. The build quality is not the best, but it's not like it'll fall apart. It's plastic after all. Every beginner should have this lens as their first purchased lens after the kit one. The 50mm focal length will make you stand further back, while allowing you to fill the frame, and will reduce distortion and flatten out your car pictures. I kid you not.

If you want great service, and alot here will agree, B&H Photo is the place to shop.
Picture taken with an XTi and the 50mm f1.8. The quality is reduced due to JPEG compression. You should see the sharpness on the original. Plus it's f1.8. Bright lens.

man V, you're killin it
ok ok I gotta talk to you...jesus, I told you to get a better cam, but a Rebel? I hate you. lol
Car is lookin sick as ever, one of the nicest 350's I've ever seen, and you have singlehandedly solidified my decision for my next car.
Oh, and you weren't playing about the rims and how much negative camber you had to run in order for them to fit. Wow.
Take some more daytime pics
