Default My First Shots

These are some of the first shots I have taken with my new Canon Xsi DSLR. I am very new to this and everything I know I have learned from reading postings on this website. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Welcome to DPS, Fly! ...apparently you've read quite a bit on DPS about composition!! You nailed all 4 of them. I love the variety of color in the reflections, and how well they're mirrored. Great shots. Looking forward to more!
