Hey Gerald, I was wondering how do you get that picture to have the beam of light like that? Thanks- Lee #265850

As you can see, the shutter speed was set at about 3.5 seconds, and the lights are actually from a car that passed in front of the camera during the exposure. You can't see the rest of the car because it was quite dark in the area I was shooting from. #1493839
