A few tips to get you started (this would be related to shooting cars).

1. Get a CPL filter and experiment with using it.
2. Shoot just after sunrise and the hour within sunset. You'd like to shoot the car when there is still light in the sky, but not light directly hitting the car.
3. Shoot with the sun to your back
4. Get a good tripod and use it!
5. Get a remote and use it (or use the timer function your camera)
6. Shoot at the lowest ISO possible (either 100 or 200) if you are using a tripod.
7. Don't shoot in Auto mode, use Aperture Priority (Shutter Priority for panning, but we'll get there later )
8. Follow the rule of thirds.
9. Try shooting the car at different angles, but keep in mind that you don't want people breaking their necks when viewing the photo.
10. Get low, sometimes you gotta get down on the ground to get a good perspective/angle of the car
11. Scout out your shooting location, don't just drive up to a parking lot and start shooting. Location and the lighting at that location during a particular time of day make a HUGE difference.
12. Put the flash away. At the time you'll be shooting (sunrise and sunset) you don't need it. As you get more advanced you'll learn how to use flash off camera when shooting cars (I'm not even there yet). Even at light, if you are using a good tripod you should be ok (I do just fine hand held at R&Rs).
13. Join flickr!, POTN, Nikonians, and other photog websites. Study the work of others, read exif data from photos you like, and go out and try and reproduce a similar image.
14. Take a ton of photos! Since I got my first DSLR in Dec 07 I have taken 32K+ photos (~22K with the D40 and 10K with the D300). A lot of trial and error along the way.
15. Read the book "Understanding Exposure", this will teach you how to properly expose an image.

Cal, Grant, did I miss anything?

There's some more info posted here: https://g35driver.com/forums/photogr...rce-guide.html
gazooks!

find pictures online and mimic them to the best of your abilities. that's what i do.
