I didn't mess with too many settings like I should have. I'm gonna lower the F stop next time and also speed up my shutter speed and run Manual mode. These were taken at 3200 ISO. Next time I won't exceed 1600. Taking moving shots at night is definately more of a challenge than buildings, cars, people and weddings at night!Let the comments begin!! I used the 28-135 IS USM and 75-300 lens

Leave the ISO at 3200, these are not that noisy at all. Lens should be wide open and shot in AV mode to get the proper shutter speed. My only other comment is to shoot vertical and crop a little to get a tighter feel on some.

What post-processing was done, if any? NR?? (I'm pondering a 30D.)

These pics are untouched and shot in JPEG.. I had my 512mb Ultra 2 card with me and didnt want to shoot in RAW due to limited space. Now when I go to the park again, I'll be taking my 512MB ultra 2, 2 gig ultra 2 and my 4gig ultra 2.. that should be plenty :).. More constructive criticism welcome!! I love photography and I only want to get better and learn from the people who love it as well :)

Could you email me that first pic? I would like to see it at 100%, compared to the poo I shot yesterday on my XT @ ISO 800.

Except for the first one, they all seem a little soft, maybe from saving to a smaller file. Your DoF seems too large since the background it mostly in focus too. Keep shooting.
