I have to ask, how long have you been shooting, what kind of equipment are you shooting with? And since you asked for opinions I will give mine. the shots are OK, but more of a snapshot feel to them than a thought provoking picture. The OrangeImpala has a fairly interesting angle to it, but you clipped the hood, lust a little, and the back corners are both clipped. The primed S-10 is just kind of ordinary, but a little off angle. And the people walking by and the cars in the background are distracting from the pic. The Bug, again the bumper is clipped out of the pic, and it looks like it was shot at high noon in harsh light. I am not trying to be a prick or anything, just trying to point out what is going on in your pics. There is a lot to think about, other than just point and click, when looking through the veiw finder. Whats in the back/foreground , hows the lighting, are my lines straight(or at the angle I want them at(triangles are pleasing to the eyes)). Then the camera settings come into play. Do you have the correct "creative" exposure? There are usualy several correct exposures, but which one is the most creatively correct for the shot to convey thought, and insight. I think your shots have potential, but need a little refinement. Hope I didn't offend you, but rather made you think a little more about your shots before you shoot them. And just FYI I have been shooting for about 8 years now. I study photography daily, shoot daily, belong to my local photography club( best thing I have done for learning photography), and just love shooting in general.
