Or, a "point and shoot" quality user.
To compensate for the high contrast between the top of the car and the 
side, infill flash should have been used to fill the shadow and reduce 
the contrast between side and top.
Set the camera to expose the rest of the scene correctly (eg ISO 100 
1/100th f1:16) and the flash at -2EV to put some light in the shadows on 
the car without wa****ng them out completely.

We only have the word of the OP that the camera used to take these was 
actually a Sony A350, the exif has been stripped and so there is no way 
to confirm or disprove his(?) claims.
