Nice composition and shots, but agree with megaweb and FujiS2, most of the shots are underexposed, especially the first two. Try tweaking them in PS. Last time ur shots were ok exposure-wise. Underexposure could be due to either your new cam settings or your monitor not calibrated (did u change it?). Check both. Maybe can post the settings which you took the photos here and we could help.

Ok.. will try more better shots. Maybe tml?
