rolling - my first "rig" shots

i had an idea tonight
took a manfrotto Light stand, a monopod head, some string and my 350d+18-55mm (just because its my lightest wide angle setup)
strapped it to the towbar on my fiancee's car and went out and took some shots

here we go

i think and im saying "think" because i never do rig shots yet, i think u just have to make the rig more stable, or drive slower and u should have some sharp lines. Payday is this thrusday and i already have everything in lowes ready to go, i cant wait to build this rig. Good luck man, Soon we will all be like JDMoto haha

yea stability is a big issue, if i had a really wide angle lens i would have used that and i wouldnt have had to extend the lightstand out as far
i am still thinking of how to mount a proper rig under the car (im thinking Manfrotto superclamps and a spidery kinda arrangement

the head i used for these shots is showing some wear where it contacted the ground, lucky it wasnt my camera

Hmm.. is the PP to remove the rig a PITA? Mind posting the picture that came right out of the camera?

not really, the bit around the towbar was a little tricky
this is a different shot (its got my head hanging out of the window)
but its as the camera took it - no WB adjustment, no PP, just a straight conversion from Raw to jpg
