I'd be more worried about the red garage door that seems to be looming very close to the front!

:P

What about people just nicking the camera if you pull up at lights?  :laugh:

Great shots though, really nice effect with the low shutter speed.

Nice shots, though I have to admit when I first saw them I thought you'd just used some kind of Photoshop filter to add the 'speed' in :smiley:

Well I have not really driven round properly with it attached as I would need a remote shutter on a lead to be able to take the pictures, whilst driving.  So people stealing it whilst at the lights could be an issue.

I just used a longer shutter speed, manually focused on the wheel centre badge and reversed the car out of my parking space in front of my garage.  So no risk of me driving into the garage as I was going backwards.

Delkin Fat Geko Camera mount I got it from Jessops there are various youtube videos e.t.c. http://www.jessops.com/online.store/products/76433/show.html I had a voucher which made it cheaper.  No huge, but does that type of thing.
