[sweetbmxrider]

Dude, don't run over your camera. :lol:

might be a cool pic :mrgreen:

[Knipps]

adam have you done much reading about these? I was actually looking into doing some of these myself this summer.

got pics of your rig?

[sweetbmxrider]

nah, just kinda went for it :lol: i know i'm not getting the shutter time correct, its tough counting it out, driving decent, and wondering if the thing is gunna hold :lol:

http://www.stickypod.com/osc/product_info.php?products_id=46&osCsid=8417c14dcc9d6400c91e1b131bde4be6

i think i got that one. i want to make/get a longer extension so i can get more of the car in the shot. we'll see what i can do.

[Knipps]

ygpm. btw, it's probably easier with a remote if you don't have one ;)

[sweetbmxrider]

ya i have one, you can see my hand up in the one pic. must have held it there the whole exposure :lol:

[fmybody]

are you moving?? what are your camera settings?

and yea deff need a wide angle

[sweetbmxrider]

yes, i was driving around my neighborhood.

i think it was like iso 800, F5.6 and shutter speeds around 20 seconds. the second group of pics was with a "wide angle"

[Knipps]

hopefully I'll be able to do a few of these summer, either with my car or truck :lol:

[sweetbmxrider]

its fun, kinda like christmas when you are done and looking at what you got :laugh:

[CHRIS67]

Or like ordering first gen parts on line. :-?

[Jersyboyy]

[fmybody]
