Hope I've put these in to the correct category!
Nipped out for a couple of hours with the camera last night, never taken a shot from inside the car and forgot to set manual focus -
however I'm really happy with the outcome and can't wait to try it again.

I also like #2.

... and can't wait to try it again.

I did something like that a few years ago, & think it works a little better if you can almost ID some things in the windshield. You can see it here.

I'm curious to know how you mounted the camera for the first one.

And the second one could use some CW rotation. Cool shot otherwise!

How would you do that without making the tower lean?

My first though was attaching the camera to the seat somehow, however just from tinkering around I found that mounting the camera on a tripod with the front 2 legs extended on the floor and the rear one just resting on the back seat fits really quite snug in between the driver and passenger seats!

I'm sure there will be better and more practical ways but for me this worked really well and didn't have to worry about the camera when going around corners. :-)

LR and PS both have distortion correction. It's a 2-second fix.

It looks okay the way it is. The horizon just throws me off a bit. I would straighten the horizon first, then move to distortion correction.
