New owner, old member: 2005 Mag Blue Elise in Los Angeles

Hi everyone

I picked up a 2005 Magnetic Blue Elise a couple weeks ago, and thought I'd finally make a thread here in the "welcome section"

My other hobby is photography, and I had a chance to take some rig shots with some new equipment Here's one of the pictures from my test

Cheers
Chris

Welcome again, how did you take that picture at such a high speed, don't you see there's a dead end in front of U?

Actually, the car was only going about 2mph (being pushed in neutral with the engine off) so no danger of hitting that wall in front

I used a 6 second exposure to capture the 'motion' effect while having the camera on a rig attached to the car. The rig was then photoshopped out

Yeah, it was a bit of a sloppy job. Like I said, this shot was a test and the first time using the rig my friend and I built, so not much effort was put into retouching.
