Messing about with lighting

[Matt W]

I finially had some time to do some night photos, messing about with shutter speeds etc. and got these:

Then came home and got a couple of pictures of the clio. Whilst I was doing this my phone rang and illuminated some of the car, so I decided to see what effect I could come up with using the light on the phone

I'd try somewhere a bit more interesting with regards the road ones.

Bottom one is the best.

Not a bad first attempt Matt. You need to use photoshop to turn that orange light into white light. Dan has done an excellent guide on it.

I know about the crap background, this was the only main road in walking distance, living in a little village fail.

White balance can GTFO. I hate using computers and I doubt i'll be getting any sort of photo editing software. Might play around with the settings on the camera.
