Side angle--Large file

Another picture but this time a more traditional (unimaginative) angle.

Very Nice. I especially like that first shot. That thing positively GLEAMS.

Any idea how long the exposure was? And what's that supernova in the center front? Reflection of the last traces of sun light? (I'm thinkin' it's not a flash.)

As DJOMLAS said they are extra foglights. You can see them in this picture. The lights are mounted behind the mesh screen in the center of the bumper.

The lights are pencil beams, they have a very narrow beam and are very bright. They lights are aimed in such a way that the lights reflect off of signs and other road markings far into the distance. And they do not blind drivers. I use them on unlit and empty interstates and back country roads.

The lights are wired into a footwell switch mounted to the left of the radio, it looks OEM.


The exposure was set at 2.5 seconds. and sitting on a stool, (tripod needed)
