The picture on the front page was done using this techinique and why it is so vivid and looks like there is more light coming from the rear/sun side of the car then there actually is.  You might see it in the rims.
And do you know what the aperature setting is and how to change it to bring more light in and keep the shutter open longer?  I am asking only because your photos seem very dark.
I could make a niteshade comment her, such as did you niteshade the photos, but that's old news.
Keep working at it.

It's all on purpose, the way the shots look. The warming of the colours, the exposure... all of it. That and I've had it for 5 days. I have a tripod, but I was messing around and didn't feel like fishing it out for 1/2 an hour of shots. The streetlights cast an interesting glow and the exposure settings just draw it out more. Plus, I was able to shoot without much noise/grain... so it's worth keeping the pictures.

I'm also working on getting a cordless remote so there's no shake. - oh man, it's $25 at Black's. Holy crap. Guess who's going to Sudbury for a remote and maybe another SD card soon?
