Defo try it again with a tripod (if you didnt use one but from the movement in the street lights i dont think you did) or rest it on something, make sure it cant fall though

Id take several shots and layer them on photoshop. That way you would get even lights on either side rather than a random car passing by

DO NOT move the camera at all though or they will not combine properly.

try using a timer dude... otherwise you'll introduce camera shake when you're pressing the button... secondly try it from different angles as it gets done quite a lot... nothing wrong with that but you want to make yours stand out more if you know what I mean...




I went for a dusk shot, so the viewer has a little more to look at then just trails
