Pretty nice pictures, man. Maybe try centering more of them the way you did with the ones of your Allroad.

Nice Pictures! But yes, lower the film speed WAY down!!! Thats why they all look grainy. Personally I never shoot above a 400ISO. Most of, if not all my pictures are shot at 100ISO because it makes them so much clearer. BUT there are times when some grain is nice.

Also with centering that only works some times. One of the biggest rules in photography is the rule of thirds. Make the main subject of your picture, whatever it may be, be in one of the third parts of the frame. BUT you can shoot however you want. It's your style.

Another thing people, or experienced photographers will tell you is once you know and understand the rules of photography, THEN you can go and break all the rules. HAHA

BUT once again, nice looking pictures!

100 film speedis good... seems like most of thew pics are just a tad bright (or over exposed) so keep your eye on the light meter and try to shoot maybe just below the center... especially when your shooting cars!, the curves will come out more detailed
