very nice photo Martijn of the action/road shot there! It's incredibly dificult to find a suitable distance/road/driver etc. here... i've wanted to do a shot like that for a while... Nice work
MS Paint? Way to go for a pro-workflow.
hehe...... yeah, imagine looking at the pic through a 16 bit (normally 256 color) monitor 400 mhz that runs more like a 233 mhz Pentium with some really slow hard drives, and who knows how little ram...

Paint aint so bad in those circumstances LOL

Even a relatitively normal car looks a million times cooler with (motion) shots like that. 8)

Hanging out of the boot is a little dangerous though

Maybe try to get a nice little in-depth thing running now Martijn with some enthusiasts in your area? Show them some of your work and they'll be banging your door down to get a go :good:

MartijnGizmo - are you using a remote to control the shutter for those shots?

I secured myself ofcourse and was sitting in the quite deep boot of a VW Polo. Also we were doing only 20mph.

I've been thinking of that. My fellow-photographer (ThunderNet) has a classmate with a modded Mk IV GTI.

The camera itself has little to do with this, I could've made them with my Powershot G5.

Yeah, I've got a wired remote (RS80-N3-clone from Adidt, they run for 10 bucks on eBay), but it's not necessary.

Here's a bonus-pic before I go to sleep:

how the hell you manage so sharp picture on 25sec shutter??? :shock:

I've heard about some holders, which you suck on the car and you've got it. but it still has to shake the camera little bit when driving

I can run very fast and have a really steady hand.

Except when you do it the right way.
