[QUOTE="KennethHamlett, post: 4007, member: 22"] Ok, if you want to stop the motion of the cars AND capture the blue light from dusk AND capture the lights from the surrounding area you will need to expose for those areas differently. With camera tripod mounted and remote in hand, expose for the car movement (faster shutter speed to stop the action). This will underexpose the landscape in the surrounding area but will also capture the individual lights. Expose again for the night sky (exposure depends on how rich you want the sky in the scene). Expose again to get light in the surrounding landscape area (this exposure could reach 30 seconds or longer). Use the photo-editing software of your choice to combine the exposures into one image.
