Light Chariot

This is my Honda.

What your seeing all around it is a long exposure of a handmade (by me) light wand. It's made with a flashlight bulb, two batteries, a couple of wires and everyone's favorite ... duc tape!
I didn't want to use fireworks sparklers on this since I like my paint job! LOL!

Since my camera will only stay open for 30 seconds, I had to put together 6 photos in PSP to make this one look like just one shot.
Enjoy your life, it's the only one you get.

    Wow 6 shots put together eek7.gif gosh, you'd never know, except that you told us :D
    Smart thinking on your part not to use sparklers that close to your car.
    The sparklers on the bike give a more brilliant affect.

    Another great shot clap.gif ...... Skippy

    Wow, you really DO like long exposures don't you? This was well executed. I feel your pain with the 30 second exposure limit. My cam only does 15seconds or 2minutes, 30seconds on bulb mode. Check my Blog to see how I combined 900 shots for a 4 hour star trail image. :)
