 Played with these a lot when I was younger. Removed the motors from the cars. (This allowed the lights to work without the cars moving). Used tape on the inside of the hood to help focus the headlights. Used a black background and a slow shutter speed to give the illusion of night. Typical editing: Crop, levels, sharpen, resize, save for web. Fun project.

The reflection of the headlights on the track is neat. With the dark background the yellow and red cars pop.

I really like the movement and curved lines of this photograph. The contrast between yellow red and black creates a dramatic effect.

I love this one! They look like real cars except for the track. The headlights really make the cars look real. Great lighting. Great angle. I like the black background.
