*DSLR Pics* Night shots of my car
Took some pics yesterday with a friend of mine. Ive had the camera a few weeks Im an SLR newb. This is the first real night shooting Ive done, I have about 1300-1500 pics under my belt (I havent shot much). I took 134 pics last night I only liked 43 of them lol, I need more practice, but I'll get there, Any comments, input/criticisms welcome, especially from some of the photographers of my350z....

As it gets darker I sometimes have trouble deciding what white balance to shoot in. I like Tungsten when its darker, but sometimes I feel like the WB on auto does a better job of capturing a more natural pic...see below and tell me what you guys like better and why....

You've left your license plate exposed in some pictures but not others.
In the evening the color spectrum can be all over the gamut. What I like to play with is the lighting levels going with high contrast dark pictures - think Batman the movie - which lends a dark and mysterious feel to the pictures.
Good pictures overall, nice composition, and almost all are perfectly exposed. The pictures display and understanding of light which is one of the core concepts of appealing photography.
Nice to see that you're using that hole in the bottom of the camera too (tripod). If you've got Photoshop look at doing some high contrast shots where you overlay multiple exposures to push the limits of the exposure contrast beyond what a single picture can do. Using this function and keeping the camera's ISO set to manual and kept low while using the manual control to under expose and over expose prints you can get some jaw dropping pictures.

nice pics! I like the Natural WB over the tungsten...tungsten seem to make everything abit too blue.
you might want to turn the wheel sometimes...with the wheel facing the camera....makes the car look wider imo.
