How did you do that? Light bulb? I'd really like to know. Very nice shot!

This shot is a compliation of 4 exposures, IIRC. It was about 15 minutes after sunset so it was pretty dark. I used a flashlite with a gobo to keep the light from being directly visible to the camera. Isections off the car and did each seperatly: Side, wheels, font, streak across the top.

I layed them up in PS7. I selected the sunset I liked best and made that the base layer. I used Layer Masks to selectively show areas of the other exposures. I was pretty successful in keeping the exposure consistant except for the wheel which were over exposed a bit.

I think I ran the final exposure through Neat Image.
