I know this isn't the "How I took It" forum, but how'd you do that? It's a VERY cool effect and I'd love to give it a shot. My guess is that it's just an extended exposure with the car driving toward the camera...a paint with light shot if you will.

Nice car and a very great way to showcase it. It's rare to see headlight trails like this...

Super awesome shot. I have never seen a light trail like this with the headlights like that.

there is a post in the how i took it section about fire the guy says that he used a flash at the end to get him into the lightart shot. I suspect that is how this is done.

Very Nice Shot!
