I’ve seen this type of photo before and decided I wanted to try it. Last night, I was on the North Shore area of Pittsburgh taking photos with Brad and Dave (I’ll post some of those pictures on another day). In advance, I packed some extra gear so I could try this on the way home. I’d call this a test photo….not the quality I’d like for a final photo.
I knew to do this right I’d need a helper with me. That helper could drive the car while I sat in the back seat taking the photos. From there I could adjust the camera settings and make sure I captured a great photo. Because I didn’t have a helper, I did the best I could with the settings configured in advance. I couldn’t adjust them while driving and I used a remote camera exposure trigger so I could drive without being distracted. I figured I’d get some test shots, so that when I had a helper in the future, the photos would be great. And I was right. Now I am ready to really get this right.
Anyway, I think the test shots turned out pretty good. Certainly, not perfect. What do you think of the photo? Leave a comment to let me know.
