I liked the disc brakes, the fishes, and Deer Creek rapids best.  The drifting movies are cool.  The couple under the big rock looks a bit soft and the snow photos have a lot of blue, which may have been the intent.  I think you know what you are doing, too.

…that just because you have a dslr. .. doesn’t mean you needed that dslr

“need” is a strong word.  Some portrait and wedding photographers use medium format.  Some street photographers use rangefinders.  For some things my cell phone  camera works pretty well — usually when I am in stores or restaurants and trying to amuse myself.  To me, for ease of use and versatility a dSLR is nicest to use.  It is the best balance of size, weight, lens selection and image quality.  And, as far as I am aware, it gives the best results at high ISO in low light.
