I am a noob with the camera.. I own an entry level canon DSLR the T3 with a 75-300 (non-is) and an 18-55 lens that really should be replaced. I really enjoyed taking the photos at the ddt yesterday, but not real pleased with the results. Headlights were pink, the photos all seem abit washed out, focus I can blame myself for, not much I can do about that with my eyesight.
The extent of my manual intervention with the camera is to set it to 'action' mode and handle manual focus.

Any tips would be appreciated..
