Practically Speaking…this was not easy. It took some real work to figure out how to do. Despite what you might think, this is really me driving down a road at about 65 mph. Taken with a Canon 5D II, 16-35 2.8 L Lens. 
Ahhhhh, you are starting to freak us out here, hehe… Now confess, how in the world did you pull that off, hehehe… Marvelous shot I should add!
BTW – I just got my new 580EX II!
You are ridiculous…how in the world did you pull that off?
WOW!! How the hell did you manage that?
either some sort of rig hooked up to the corner of the bumper that is cropped, or you are following someone that is holding the camera while you trip the shutter remotely.
Amazing! You’ve outdone yourself. OK, spill! Even if you did attach some kind of pole and camera deal (scary!), wouldn’t the texture of the road make for some shake? Oy. You’re like Houdini. But without the whole milk can thing.
I forgot to mention, however you did it, it is a great shot! (as always)
Very cool – I’ve got my guess on how you did this, but wanted to say I just noticed your topper on the [b]school.
I would guess photoshop blur and mask the car….
Thanks everyone- I can see you are enjoying this, so I will give you some clues: I was the only car on the road and there wasnt a rig attached to the front bumper. I have to hand it to you Adrian, because either one of these would have worked and the second car was something I considered, but I would have need a few helpers to do that. 🙂
I’m guessing Gorilla pod attached to a tree and impecable timing. Seriously great shot.
Karen, that was my guess also. A gorilla pod. A semi clear road. A few setup shots. A timer and a little Michael Andrew Magic. VIOLA!!
aggghhh!!! i love it! And feel privileged that I know how you did it 🙂
Karen’s guess sounds good, but I think it cannot be that way becuase if the camera is not moving with the vehicle you will see the entire shot frozen (no movement). Now if you were to use the panning technique it would explain it, but then again Michael said he had no help and if he did it wouldn’t be a 365… Any other ideas y’all? Michael, you are killing meeee!
I’m still baffled and intrigued by this shot, any new ideas as to how it was done?
SPILL, MICHAEL!
How did you do this Michael???? Spill….
heres the deal guys….I have several shots coming that are using these types of techniques, if I tell you how I did this, it will ruin these new shots. However, I would like to turn the table on you and ask…."If you were to replicate this shot…how would you do it?"
I don’t have the slightest idea, I have analyzed the shot together with the Miami gang, but we are totally baffled… Michael, when you finish your new shots, will ya please let us know how you did it? I love this shot!
Ok the only thing I can think of by looking at this is if you look at the reflection of the road and trees on the car…there is NOT any "movement". Has to be edited cause Michael said it wasn’t attached to the car. My guess…and im also guess that im wrong. So either way i’m right on something! 🙂
I think the camera was set up on the side of the road, drove the car past it and remotely triggered it. Added the motion effect in editing. There is a ‘void’ of motion to the left of the rear bumper and there is a glowing area at the right front bumper and right A pillar. Fast enough shutter speed would freeze the reflections on the car. That’s what I think. Cudos for not getting the camera reflected in the car (if it is set up that way).
