 Originally going to be for the last 30 second exposure challenge.

Parked car. No lights except for small lights on side of home.

Steps:
1. Clicked shutter.
2. Pressed the lock button on keyless remote. This made the flashers blink once.
3. Slowly walked to driver side door. Turned on the headlights for a second.
4. Walked over to passender side of car with a flash unit. Clicked the test button and lit up the passenger side of car.

I have a bunch of these but I liked this one the best.

Done some post processing to blacken out surroundings.

Anyway, only thing I could think of to change would be to use a smaller f-stop so that the blinking lights weren't quite so overpowering.


I wanted the lights to flare out. I have a 6 point star filter, but that was too much.

I originally wanted a black one, but where I saw it in real life, the front end didn't look good to me. Then I saw the yellow, and now I have a yellow car. It's still hard for me to believe.

Also, Black is 10 times easier to keep clean than yellow.

Nice pic, nice car and nice title. I guess the other one "Four Old Rusty Doors" wouldn't apply here.

Very nice capture. I would also remove the leaves above the car and in front of the car and extend the black area on the right side to allow some space and it would be perfect. The details of the actual car are smooth.
