How do youy make the blurr of the lights in a pic? Like that up there. I wanna take a couple of pics of my car for this lil contest thing at my school and its the "most creative"...I know I could easily win if I had a shot like that. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/blush.gif.99bc659ee2012b7d826165e26fb5eebe.gif

I've seen the same thing done with a guy I know. He did it with his car and it showed where he had driven/different positions.

Is it just multiple pictures or what? I have a Canon PowerShot A520...thanks

yep, just use a really slow shutter speed, but make sure you adjust the opening (i forget what the real term is) so you dont overexpose the film

well its a Digital Camera...how would it overexpose the film if its just bits of data? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

you can still let it collect so much light that it gets all screwed up

does it have a manual mode?

if you can't control shutter speed or apature settings. then if nothing else at night just turn the flash off and that should do the trick
