I took this photo by hanging out the car window with my camera while my brother was driving through the city. I only had about one kilometer to try to take a good photo of a car without the camera shaking too much for the 1/2 second exposure. I managed to get some really good/sharp images with great light streaks in the background and across the cars, however the side mirror was really distracting so i decided on this picture mainly because I was able to crop the mirror out.
I would have liked to take more pictures to perfect this, but nobody is really willing to help me with my photos.

i love motion images, the effect always seems to make an image better, nice work 5

I like the fluidness about the lighting, even on the rear of the car.

Good try at a hand held night shot. If you had used a tripod the stationary car in the center would have been sharp.

cool panning. the cropping on the bottom seems a bit abrupt, but i guess you felt that was preferable to whatever was there that you cropped out.

Wish there was more to see below and immediately behind the back wheel - then I'd crop a little from the left. Best yet - if you cold get a vanising pint into the frame you;d get a real sense of going somewhere. I like the colors and motion in the pict.

Excellent use of blur
