However if you drove it forward, you could black out or disconnect the headlights, leaving just a stream of tail lights for a motion effect.
I haven't seen anything like this so I'm just throwing out ideas. Trying to wrap my head around it. I'm not sure I'm picturing the end result properly. |

Lochie night action by Peter Mackey, on Flickr
The trick seems to be shooting against a dark backdrop so that the subject doesn't appear translucent (as it does in third link).

To those that have posted scenics, keep doing what you're already doing. Use the rule of, do whatever the hell you want, as long as you keep producing asweome pics.
Put people as subjects in the centre, or don't, either way works, because photography is subjective, and the pics in this thread have been outstanding.

I should post some photos from my recent trip to Europe

Please do, but do it with the intention of adding more pics to this thread, not to correct CP'ers on how they should be shooting.

Great Airshow shots. Low ISO and nice fast shutter speeds.
I wish the sun would come out when I shoot with my telephoto... I'm always having to go up to ISO1600 (or higher) to get a fast enough shutter speed to shoot handheld since it's always cloudy whenever I find myself going for it.

You probably already know this, but panning and VR can help you keep your ISO down.

Yea, my 300mm F/4 is sans VR unfortunately... and if I'm too lazy to take the teleconverter off, it's even worse to handhold.

I think Jayems, Regulator, Yasa and Cowperson have posted some real 'thread winners' recently. My landscapes are pretty cliche and I'm still quite new to photography.
It's hard to take a bad picture in the Rockies

Hmmm, if I had to choose, I'd say Hans, Jayems, Sebc, BC-Chris & Kunkstyle all won this page. 
CP sure does have a massive group of photographers and seeing different styles and subjects is what makes this thread so damn good.

And we all owe our progress as photographers to the unsolicitated advice of MoneyGuy.

D700 or D800 for you?
Congrats either way!
