Looks nice, but you shoud have definitly used manual focus as the camera seems to be focusing on the close asphalt rather then your car.

Nice none the less.

Nice lookin' car. Some people go out of their way for the "sleep eye" look on their flip up lights. Here you are complaining... lol

Nice ride....you need to set up your long shutter exposure. The shots came out too dark. To eliminate the blurriness, you may want to use a tripod. If your camera has an ISO function, you could raise it up a bit to minimize camera shake; however, your shots may come out noisy…but then again they already are

Oh is that the Eagle Rock plaza parking lot?

i had no idea how to set up that camera, all i did was point and shoot. the only one that came out good was the gas station one. I guess its harder taking night time pics.

and yup thats the eaglerock plaza parkin

What camera did you use? And night time pics are pretty easy.. Just use a tripod, bigger aperature, and longer shutter speed...

Here is one I took at autobacs not to long ago:


I think that was with a 15 second exposure, 2.8 aperature and shooting at 100iso to get very mininal grain.

Black cars are difficult to take pics of, especially with a non contrasting background such as a parking garage.

Try shooting with a good backgorund such as a field of grass, red rock, desert etc... something besides shades of grey and black like the parking garage. Pics would look better with a red car.
