Newbie looking to learn

[61ache]

Just started snapping pictures and looking for feedback. Here's some pics from the local mall. Any comments, negative or otherwise, appreciated. I'm trying to learn though, so the more tips the better.

I know, probably too many pictures, but the more comments the better right now.

Hey, welcome to the forum...

Can you tell us what camera you have and what settings you used for the above images?

Obviously a quick shutter speed to stop the motion on those rides, so that's a good start. ARe you on auto mode?

If you are using a dslr (or even if you aren't) this would be a good thread to read if you are just getting started:
