Any comments or suggestions on how to improve my shots from you seasoned photographers would be appreciated. I usually try and shoot on the ends of the aperture and ISO spectrum, mostly 5.6 or 22 and 100-200 or 1600 respectively.

Few from last weekend in North Carolina for Deals Gap Rotary Rally, still trying to familiarize myself with the lense/camera etc. Wasn't too happy with a majority of the photos.

Came out a little dark

This bike was pretty dope.

I'd adjust your white balance. I like my photos a bit on the warm side, though.

Also, what iso were you shooting in?

I like colder photos mostly, I need to mess with WB and iso more. Those were on iso 400 I think for a majority of them. I definitely need more practice.

I think cold photos work in certain situations. Whenever I shoot promos for a metal band, I usually use a colder white balance, but usually if I'm shooting a nature scene, or something of the like I try and get it a hair on the warm side. Otherwise it looks too depressing to me. Lol

Also, all the editing I do is up the saturation a smidge, maybe play with the hue/color, and sharpen it a tad. If you sharpen it just a little it gives it in extra crispness in the focus, which I feel a professional photo should have.

Good info, thanks man. I'll be doing a lot more shooting in a couple weeks, I'm resigning from my weekend job so I can focus more on this...and living a somewhat normal life lol I don't know where I want this to go but I'm sure I'll enjoy the ride.

Trying to figure out how to take some decent shots. Just got a new camera today (Cannon Rebel XS 1000D with the standard 18-55mm lens) heres my first attempts, please let me know what I need to work on.

Other than croping those they have not been touched as I dont have any photo editing software...
