The sun and sunsets are actually kinda tricky. You hit it a few times, where you have the car angled and you follow the cars line to the horizon.

When the subject is directly in front of the light, then you'll always get shadows

A tripod will help in low light/long exposure situations.

Digital film is free. Keep practicing. You can only get better.

If you really want to learn on your own, bring a note pad with you. Take several different pictures of the same subject with different camera settings (and angles). Record the different settings on your notes and compare them with the pics on your computer later.

It's a very long and boring process but you learn how to use camera angles and settings. Lucky for me, my camera records the setting for every picture so I get to be lazy and not write anything down.
