What If .................The thoughts of a mad man.

What If .................The thoughts of a mad man.
I have always wanted to see just how the camera would see a car trip in the dark at 5:40 am most cases I am the driver but on this occasion I was not.

So this is an educated guess press the shutter button with the camera on the dash of the car for 30 sec @ 103 km/H following a car transport truck. Its the dark trees way out in the bush that line the roads. I am thinking I should have shot on high beam may be to get a more expanded view...

An interesting and different image, Steve. I don't think the truck ahead would have been very appreciative if you'd used high beam though. :-)

Not the usual shot that's for sure more a mad man shot.

Interesting experiment Steve. Its always good to see something different.

So unlike a short video I saw on our last night national news which showed a guy videoing himself at the wheel of his car at 100mph (160kpm) just before he crashed it. - I know, of course that you was not the driver here.

Well done. Herb

No chance of that happening here and it never will but you can expect another photo on high beam.
