Anyway, Here are some pretty shots

***NOTE - Look at the ground just behind the back bumper.. You will see the exhaust plate reflection on the ground.
I've got 2 red LED's shining on it for a subtle look. Really

most camera's have a 'night' setting that would produce pics like that...

it opens up the aperature, usually uses a rear curtain flash, and slows the shutter speed down...usually requiring a tri-pod !!

or uses the slow-sync flash option
