This is another image I got lucky on - I love the glow of the lighting inside the street car, as well as the headlamps. It gives it a certain warmth. The driver was inside, fiddling around with something in the back, but he must have been moving enough that he didn't record at all, or he's hidden by something inside the car.
 
 
Thanks. I was being a bit paranoid about my color work all weekend because I was working with outdated film, AND I was getting meter readings that were unfamiliar - ISO 100, f8 at 4 seconds (8 with reciprocity). I'm used to thinking of night exposures in the 30 seconds to 3 minute range for my black-and-white work. I was very pleased to see the exposures came back good and that I gave just the right reciprocity - color film requires less reciprocity compensation than b/w does, only 1 stop for exposures less than 1 minute, IIRC.
