Light trail test shot.

Didn't have much time to play with settings but just wanted to run some test shots before travelling further afield to try out a shot I've been wanting to do pretty much all year but had to wait for the dark nights.
Be intrested in your thoughts

Thanks

Looks like a perfect time of the day ! You just need to find your location now.

Thanks, I have a location in mind but my shifts and child care issues mean I'm not going to have a crack at it far at least a week, and possibly longer

looks a good start

an exposure of more than 25secs may help as it wont chop trails on longer locations

on this one i'd crop 50% off the black foreground under the feint red trail ...

I think that you've done a good job on these Lee I always consider street level trails to be the more challenging of trails as the headlights can very easily wash out the tail lights also the light/colour in the sky really set this off

I'm looking forward to seeing you put this in to practice in a more interesting location

Thanks for the kind comments, I always appreciate feed back.

I really want to get out and try some more roadside stuff and some of the locations I have in mind are going to be challenging.

Here's another of the test shot I got, pulled a bit of the foreground back in lightroom.
