If you have shot these on auto, the camera would have selected a higher iso rating which would enable a faster shutter speed because of the low light level. I don't really understand how it works in digital photography but in film a faster film gave more grainy pictures. I assume that a faster iso in a digital camera also compensates in some manner, but i can't explain how exactly. The colours in #5 are fabulous. Are you saying those aren't the colours of the sky? I know that sometimes some cameras don't accurately render the colours you saw and it may only happen with one or two colours. The cheaper cameras are more prone to this. I believe this can be corrected in photoshop but with a sunset, why bother.

you can play around with levels and saturation until you get what you want. The last one is my choice!

I was going to say, for the grainy effect check the ASA (ISO) On my Canon EOS I can chose the ASA I want. The lower, the neater. Your last picture... excellent !

ShangriLa is exactly right. The reason it is this way on digital cameras is the same reason that an electric guitar can sound distorted: the processor is overwhelmed with information. A high ISO is much more sensitive to light so that it takes only a small amount to overwhelm it, like wise a guitar amp or speaker with a low gain threshold. It's easily fixed with manual settings, I actually make a point never to shoot over 400 ISO unless I'm shooting candles in the dark. If you use Photoshop you may find a plug-in called Noise Ninja quite useful. It also comes bundled with the Bibble software (bibblelabs.com). It's easy to forget to set ISO on my camera because of the menus I have to navigate...

Very nice pics ! Reg. your question on #1, like stated by ShangriLa and Dogeatery, the grain is probably due to high ISO speed. With Canon DSLR, you have reasoneable grain upto 800 ISO. Personaly, I use DXO to manage grain at 1600/3200 ISO.
