 Similar to a shot I saw on DPC and some shots I've seen before but tried to get the camera as low to the grouund as possible! My 20D (wasn't willing to risk the 1DMk2, wasn't really willing to risk the 20D!) mounted on my tripod (Bogen 3021 Pro) with the center column at 90 degrees, then gangled out of the passenger window. Various cords including Camera strap used as safety! I know it wasn't a Saturday Night, but it's sort of a play on words.

Final Image:

Some levels, sharpening, NI and rotated 180.

Difficult perspective to capture. Nice stong definition. Good balance.

Nice shot, and as a Mustang fan, this gets bonus points from me. Looks like a V6 if I'm not mistaken.

Whoa! How did you take this without being run over? Very very cool--love the moving and blurring and streaks of light.

Fun long exposure! Man, it's lucky you didn't get hit. How'd you manage that? I like this.

Any picture that has a car in it, the car MUST be clean. Neat pic though.

Now, this gives me pause as to how this picture was taken. I'm thinking you hung your tripod out the car door. Am I right? High kudos for creativity. Nice long exposure.
