It’s funny how one thing can lead to another. Just last night after completing a photo assignment to capture a local food truck…
Roll!
50mm, ISO 200, f/2.8, 1/13 (Tripod)
…I walked by a common fountain I see every day and finally got the urge to do a simple long exposure…
Triple Spout
50mm, ISO 100, f/4, .5 Seconds
…and upon crossing the street to get back, a brigade of emergency vehicles came screaming by. I thought, “Hmm…you know what would make a great light-trail? A FIRETRUCK!” Though my mind was racing, I was able to calm my nerves to get all the settings nailed before too many of them passed.
Firemen
50mm, ISO 100, f/16, 5 Seconds
And…maybe a police car?
The Cop
50mm, ISO 100, f/16, 5 Seconds
Yes, yes, I believe they did make neat light trails. Much more interesting than “just a car” driving by, anyway. And to think, had I not been on assignment, I wouldn’t have gotten the chance to shoot these. A real shame to imagine that. 
That’s all for this post guys and gals, thanks for dropping by. As always, have a great day!
P.S. Lens used was the 50mm f/1.8 E.
Way cool!!
Thank you Suzanne.
wow,awesome shots,i guess that you were excited taking those photos,glad you didn’t let that chance pass..
Been wanting to do an emergency vehicle light trail for a long time, but the times I had my camera with me it was daytime, or I didn’t have a tripod.
