Default An Interesting Perspective on my 944 (Picture)

Just took this today in the garage, just wanted to try out the technique.



Should have cleaned off the dust before but oh well, I will be posting pictures up every once in a while - especially when I get my Supercups mounted again.

That's the beauty of photoshop It's using old Mothers Synwax, really the reason it looks good is because of the lighting effect, the car was pretty dusty and hasn't been waxed since last Summer.

It is called "Light Painting" - a 30 second exposure in an extremely dark garage (all doors closed) where you wear dark clothing and you use a light to go across the car itself. I used just a standard garage lamp.

The funny part is, it wasn't a fluorescent over head, just a cheap garage lamp on a long exposure - you can get some really cool shots with this effect.

I was right! Thought you were using a long exposure with a small light. Really cool effect, I'll have to try it sometime
