I have that same lens and never really liked it much. It's great when starting out but the quality of this lens I posted below is way superior. I use the Canon 60D.

Main experience. I trained hard for two years almost daily. And shoot in RAW format to expose the white balance

yeah your photos are great either way, not the lens I thought it was. I shoot daily as well. Mostly product photography and pet photos though.
