Title: Drive-by shooting
Post by: HCS on October 17, 2015, 21:09:34: It's been done before and posted, for example by John and Erik during our NG trip to Schwarz Wald. But, i'd like to turn it into a topic thread (mods please move if this isn't the right place).

So let's have your drive by shooting pics. There are no rules, but they should be shot from something driving: car, bike, donkey, you get the picture 8)

Here are mine, all shot from the shotgun seat of El Presidente!
#1 Roadside Dino (i believe a Brontosaurus)
#2 Martians
#3 Driving home
#4 TUNNEL !!!

Photographed from half a Toyota. (I think the other half broke down before we got to rent it)

Thanks Elsa. And ... so true, we miss so many opportunities, but usually i'm the one doing the driving and it wouldn't be so safe shooting (with a camera that is). So, i shoot with my mental camera but cannot show those pictures here of course.

Anyone reading this, please do add your stuff, but please be safe while drive-by-shooting :D

somewhere in Ladakh . Shot from the passenger window of an SUV. When we arrived alongside I did not feel it prudent to shoot since the Indian Army was not amused ;) Distances are great , time precious, so many images shot on the move :) . D700, 70-200 2.8vr II ( my then favourite travel combo).

Tristin, your image made me remember this road trip with my cousin and another friend. Through the front glass of a moving car coming home from Valencia

Thomas, I would crop out the bottom part of the image completely and post it in minimalist images :)
Paco, Paco, Paco... I have been to Valencia once, fell in love completely, will go again for sure!
