i've listed my photo equipment before but i am gonna start doing it again. i actually like to hear the stories behind the photos and how the image was made as far as technique and post processing.

 

Nikon D40, 1.6 second exposure. Wanted to capture the sweep of the gauges. This shot really shows how ugly the AEM gauges really are. Slightly crooked because I had to mount the tripod on the pass floor, armrest and my crotch.

 

haha aem looks cheap, but if you have only aem gauges they look a lil better.. My friend with all defi gauges still likes them, if you put it besides defi or prosports haha its a different story..

 

built a rig and here are the results

 

Very nice!

 

unedited shots

 

Don you seem to have turned white and have long hair now..

I wanna build one now! =[

 

i dont have the ***** to leave my camera hanging from any rig i built.

 

yeah...hanging 4k worth of equipment is kinda scary

 

damn don!!

that rig looks like the one i built, i just need to get a wide angle lens, i cant catch the whole car in the shot.

 

i need to see how this whole rig thing works. i think i know, but i'd rather see it in person or someone take a picture of the rig in action.

 

i wanna make the rig longer, but i need to stabilize it more

 

I make a motion that you post a DIY on this rig of yours...


sick pics by the way, don
