So what is it now? A DSLR or a 35mm?

Without being too critical, your exposure is not too bad. Just avoid mid day, best before 9 am and after 5 pm. If you do artificial lighting with film use compensation filters or Tungsten film for incadescent.

What pokes my eye, is your framing and the way you bring in the depth of field.

The frog is the best in my opinion, the Chevy would be perfect if it was free standing, but what can we do ...?
