Just learnt an important lesson about White Balance

Hey all, I'm new to this place. Recently I've bought a black EOS 300D camera (not unusual, eh?:D) and have been playing around with it a lot using the kit lens. Today was the day (night) to play with some WB settings, so I did just that.. here are some results:

3.2s Exposure, auto aperture, ISO400, Auto WB:

Sorry if the pics are too big, I don't know the image size limits for these forums...:o

Anyways... I had to have something as my first post, so here it is:)

Those are some good examples, Dog, but it looks like you have a bit of a parking problem near your house, huh? Merry Christmas.
