This past weekend I attended a get together with some old car buddies. On the way back, a good friend of mine got this shot out of his passenger window as we cruised along. I thought it was a pretty neat pic.

Driving the '46

Same shot sort of 'washed out' of color.

Thank you for all the kind words... I give the credit to my buddy for the shot and my fiance for driving the 'camera car'. I just drove.

A special thanks to the great folks on Stovebolt.com that she's even running! grin

He may send me some more shots he took and if he does, I'll post those as well. If anyone just wants other pics I already have pm me with your e-mail and I'll send 'em along.

To get a shot like that you need a camera that you can control the shutter speed. Set it to like 1/15 sec (or slower), be in a car moving the same speed as the subject vehicle and hold the camera steady on the subject and shoot. The long exposure will blur the stationary background but because you were steady on the subject it will be sharp.

You can do the same thing standing on the side of the road and following the car with your camera but you only get a few frames each time the car passes.

Try it.

Well "Thank you" Rapter!!

Those '40's era trucks were pretty cool, however, your '52 is very impressive!! Nice paint job!! thumbs_up

It would be cool to see Big Tee and your truck in motion going down the highway side by side!!

BTW, just where in the good ole USA are you Rapter?? This is a big country!!

Thanks again everyone for the kind words... Tim, you know your truck is awesome. I'm sure you'll be glad to get it out of hibernation... grin

I think the explanation of the shutter speed is pretty accurate. We (camera car and me) were both driving the same speed. While I am personally camera challenged, my buddy knew how to set up the shot.
