Wow, cool photos! I love the subtle bulb-effect in the background. Professional photographer?

Nice!
I think the exposure might of been open abit too long. Otherwise great shots!
What camera was used for those? Clearly a tri-pod was also used. ;)

Dark, wet, and unfamiliar roads...
Randy was ready to let anyone give it a spin, but we were all too shy to drive it. Kinda wish I would've as it'll probably be a while before the opportunity comes up again. OTOH, it would have made my drive home a little disappointing...

They were taken with a Canon 10D. The exposures were really pretty crazy...sodium vapor lighting (or something like that); the original shots were very orange colored! All four cars had a 15 second exposure (f/13) and the two sedan shot was either 3 seconds (f/2.8) or 8 seconds (f/4.5)...most definitely I had the tripod assist!
Just a hobbiest. :)

Oh, man - opportunity knocked, and you ignored it!!! :confused:
Personally, the FIRST opportunity I got to drive one, I took it. I met a certain owner (who shall remain nameless, lest he be beset by n00bs wantin' rides) at a point about midway between our respective homes. (Still took us each about 40 minutes to get there. He's a REALLY nice guy, obviously) Even though there was lots of traffic, it was a HOOT.
You wouldn't be disappointed on the way home, but it would confirm your worst fears.... :hihi: :addict:

15 seconds exposure! :eek: I would have guesss 3 seconds, as in the second photo. Maybe thee street behind the cars wasn't heavily trafficed? :D Nonetheless, great photos. Great nightshots and bulb-shots are almost impossible without a what's-it-called (?) :)

It was just short notice and I actually had some bidness with a couple of the guys!
We really should meet for a spin on Redwood Rd. and a coffee or dessert at Chow down in town sometime soon! :)
