a tripod is a must for night shots...

If you have a point and shoot w/manual capabilities as I do, try going into manual mode and adding some white balance.
Also, if you have some good software you can compensate for that after the fact.

Hmmm. Me TOO!! Only my classes were the trial andFAIL kind , like Jaime is trying to do now. Sooner or later you catch on to what works and what doesn't work as well... though not professional quality.
Alot of wasted 35mm film/processing costswent through my camera to get a few good shots. Digital is the way to go.

duhhh. i guarantee speedy that your girlfriend gets jealous of your car alot. you probably talk more about the car then you do anything else. it isnt an obsession. its love. you just want to tell the whole world that you love your car and dont ever want anything else lol
