Alright, I went out taking some snaps of my car the other night and now i've got a new favorite photo.

So, in sharing this with you all I wanted to see your favorite shots of your own cars.

Please limited the images to no more than 640x480 and ~40kb please.

Details of the Image:
Taken using Canon Powershot A75
No tripod used (I used the ground and a rock to slightly prop up the camera :P)
5 second exposure with aperature of 2.8
50 ISO
Photo was taken at a park at the south of redcliffe overlooking the big bridge (can't remember its name :P). Car was parked at the top of a boat ramp to minimise clutter in the background.

it looks good.....but its too dark. Dark car in dark light...can hardly make it out. Now if the moon was in the background shining on the car.....THAT would be a photo.

Don't mean to burst your bubble....

Don't mean to burst your bubble....Yeah, I know.... but I don't mind how the car seems to 'emerge' from the darkness.

Unfotunately the streetlight nearby was a very yellow light... and even with color balancing the car came out very yellow if I made the exposure any longer (just look at the color of the wheels... they are normally your typical silver color).

But yeah... I just like this photo.... I've taken 'better' photos of the car... but this is my favorite.

Donna, Please resize/remove that second picture. I specifically asked for people to keep image sizes down to people like myself on 56k don't have to wait for years for this page to load.
