Wow that is cool, some bloody good photoshop skills there!

How did you learn to do that? A course or just teaching yourself?

Very smart Will!! What have you made the rig from? Might have a bash of making one myself.

Also how do you actually do the pics, is the car just pushed, or is it driven?

Have you stretched that bottom one? The road isnt straight. To be contructive, id say good effort, just try and work composition. What lens are you using? Wider angle works best for impact on rig shots in my opinion.

I bought an extending pole from Wickes which is flimsy, for some reason the pics still come sharp though so ive never had to replace it. Rigs are just so expensive to buy.

I looked at work today for some ally tube but we dont have any, we got some thin wall mild steel though which is surprisingly light. I found a length of 25mm that some 22mm slips into quite nicely.

I need to make myself one of these one day.

How do you transport the pole from location to location?

I assume its one long pole and not in sections...
