I've been meaning to try this out for a while now, and today it kind of came together. The end result did NOT please my wife, but I'm pretty stoked:

Nice shot 8)

Hah, I have to add that to the list (http://nfgworld.com/mb/post/49). =D
pardon me if I'm wrong, but Doesn't the speedo read about 70kms/hr or so? or is it just my eyes
If 70kms/hr is warp speed i'd hate think what 170kms/hr is.( hyperdrive maybe?)

Shhhhh...
oops! I know nothing, NOTHING!
Great pic NFG.
Saw something very similar recently, wanted to go out and do it but ya beat me too it.
Do I imagine you were using a cable release?
No cable release, just a 20 second timer and plenty of stops on side roads. Press button, vroom, SNAP, <repeat>.
how long was the exposure rate?
Exposure time is noted on the image, 1/100th.

And a 30 sec timer ?
Mmick
The camera's self-timer options are, IIRC, 2, 5, 10 and 20 seconds. I set it to 20 so I'd have time to get up to speed and line it up, but 10s is all I really needed.
Sweet pic! Thanks for the info on how to do it too! [thumbsup]
i dont think the camera on my Iphone would work very well for this :'(

DUC TAPE to the chest... and just a tip, you might want to shave the hair off first,
SOB why didn't I think of that...

Once you try duc tape to the chest without shaving... you will never forget to shave. [laugh]
haha nice pic!
I just bought a secondhand nikon D60 as a learner camera, I'd like to have a crack at this.
what I'd like to see but, is a pic of you with the camera taped to ya chest... now THAT would be humurous! :)
