Wellington NZ has a funicular railway (locally known as "the cable car"). It runs from the CBD to the hill suburb of Kelburn, passing through two tunnels on the way. Here is one of the two cars entering the tunnel to the city terminus.

Canon 7D
EF-S 15-85mm IS USM at 85mm setting
f5.6 at 1/100 and ISO3200
Minor PP to bring some detail back to the overexposed area where the other car is in the sunlight.

Couple of friends and I were checking out the new Ferrari dealership today and I came across this BLACK mirror on a red Ferrari.

I've always wanted to try a fake planet shot, so I thought I'd try on this black peppercorn. A light source was placed to the right pointing at it. Hard part was suspending it in front of a black background. I used a cocktail stick pushed through black card, then glued the peppercorn to that. The cocktail stick gave me light reflection problems until I covered it with a black marker.
