I was parked up in my truck last Wednesday evening and with nothing on the TV I thought id have a practise at a couple of long exposures to capture the lights of the passing vehicles. Compositionally I was limited as I was stuck in the small lay-by for the night. All comments and critique welcome, I'm still very new with my camera.

1. Tail lights from a refrigerated lorry.

2. A passing wide load.

Nice clean image. A good start. As you say location was the deciding factor. I'm sure you'll have more opportunity location wise with your job!

Would help if you could post the pictures direct to your thread rather than sending people via fickr.

Thanks for taking the time to view & for the feedback, I did try to upload images directly but for some reason computer said no!! I think that's down to my laptop though, its getting a bit tired! Hopefully some more interesting locations will present in the future. Cheers
 
It's a pleasure. Sorry I couldn't be more constructive but looks like you've got the technique right and it's all about practice. No need to upload directly to TP. Have a look at the guide but all I did was looked at your pics on flickr, right clicked, copied image url. Then I clicked on the mountain icon in this comment box and just pasted what I'd copied from flickr.
