EXIF data
This thing has been parked sort of near my apartment for the last, I dunno - week? Two weeks? I seldom drive that way, but every time I have recently, it's been there.
It's pretty awesome. So I decided to take a photo.
The funny thing is, this was supposed to be an exercise in off-camera flash. Nothing fancy, just manually setting the flash and firing it off a few times during a long-ish exposure.
Figures I like the test shot taken without any flash more...
Really, it's just because of a technicality. This beautiful Airstream trailer is made of shiny metal. That's kind of what I love about it. But as we all know, metal is incredibly reflective. So flash = streaks. Annoying streaks. That I couldn't ignore, even though I liked how the flash made the trailer stand out a bit more from the background. Argh.
Someday I'll learn how to do things properly. Until then, I'll just keep screwing around (literally) in the dark. It's kind of fun.

Great picture! I'm strangely drawn to airstream trailers myself.
