Nice shots bro! Very nice. It will only get better as you practice with it more too! I'm in the process of doing research and trying to figure out what camera to buy. Trying to decide on the Canon T3i, 60D, 7D or Nikon D7000. It's like picking out rims for your car...man it's a tough choice! What made you go with the 2Ti?

You're right it is a tough choice... I was gonna buy the T1i, but then changed my mind last minute cause the price difference was not that significant. The T3i features were not enough to justify the additional cost. I have Canon point and shoots, and wound up sticking with the brand I know. Also, two of my buddies have Canons (T2i & T1i) so I figured they could show me the ropes and teach me what I need to know. The T2i has more features than I'll ever need, and I'm glad I bought it.
Very nice! Try adding gradients to the sky and adding some definition when you HDR tone. Mess around w/ contrast more, it's the simplest change, but it always makes the biggest difference.
Invest in a polarizer filter too, one of the best additions to any SLR
Honestly, get the least expensive option. I'm a Canon shooter, so idk about Nikons and their prices (AND HAVE A BURNING HOT HATRED AGAINST ALL NIKON SHOOTERS
), but I'd stick w/ a T2i and just invest in the best glass.

Thanks for the tips.. It's fun messing around. I was using a UV filter btw.

I find UV filters to be kinda pointless, but it might be because the one I bought was cheap and pretty damn crappy... Mess around w/ lens blur too, when you get bored.
