just a derelick,now if only these vehicles could whisper a though or two,what would you think this one would be saying.
shot with the nikon D300 for about 150 seconds,the other front side had me ghosted in.

Nice, I like the technique for illuminating the lights, though I can see your torch in front of the yellow indicator light.
I'm surprised at the results on WB Auto, thought the torchlight might be off-white.

It's not one of the ones I had, so let it talk! - TF

very creative shot. i like how you illuminated the lights. it had me thinking for a while until i read Paul's comment above. I think it might have improve had it been a tack sharper and maybe even wider.

Wherever this field/junkyard is, you have a goldmine! I do think you need to get your focus issues sorted out though. Both this and the line of old Fords that you posted in viewfinder would be absolutely fantastic if they weren't so soft. I think this needs much more DoF than f/3.5 which actually should help with the lighting as it will buy you more time during the exposure. I would try at least f/9.5 and maybe go even lower depending on what's in the background (f/19 -f/22 would not be out of the question). Your composition in both shots is spot-on and they are both very much worth a reshoot.

thanks guys i'm going back out tonight and i'll try your suggestions, perhaps i'll change my metering as well,what about noise reduction? for three minutes i thought was not capturing long enought to use it, i guess i'll play around alittle more,and try not to get myself ghosted in so much,thanks for the inputs.

went out tonight and boosted my fstop to f8, and tried harder on the focus,


a few examples,.
