Tip of the Day: Photographing Car Light Trails

Tip of the Day: Photographing Car Light Trails

• When choosing your location, consider the different effects that color will have on your shot-- cars coming toward you will produce white light trails, cars moving away will give you red light trails.

• Plan your exposure time so that passing cars have enough time to pass completely through your frame.

• Experiment with exposure times. Longer exposures will allow for more trails but they'll look more faded.
