Full RULES can be found here: RULES
If you don't read them, don't be upset if your pic is disqualified.

THEME: Lights and Night Shots
------------
I guess Debbie Boone said it best. This round is all about the electric light! Not just cool head lights, tail lights, and such, but also what they light up! How about your ride under the glow of a neon sign? A trouble light shinning under the hood? Or maybe pictures of the past - like an empty light bucket on a twisted old wreck or a tin can full of used 1157's. I don't suggest the flashing lights of a squad car in your rear view mirror, but it might make a cool pic? So lets get the cameras revved up again and make Humphry Davy proud!

This is Rat Rods Rules, but we're not just about rats, so if it's got wheels, had wheels, is related to wheels, or is around your shop, it might be worth a picture.

Ready....

Go ahead Sam, disqualify it cuz there's people. I like this shot because that's tire smoke diffusing the sunlight
Not rat rod tire smoke unfortunately.
 
Bob, as the Judge for this round, you'll be the one to pick the 10 photos that go into the poll - so you can't submit pics this round. It would kinda be a ringer. Very cool pic though!
 
Okey Dokey! Folks, please ignore the two pics I posted. They're there just to get the round started.

"Wall Hangers"... or... a traffic light flanked by a pair of crusty headers.



I shot this in total blackness with a dimmer/rheostat on the traffic light (incredibly bright at full voltage) and a small "strap-on your skull" work lamp. (It's really a helmet... my mom makes me wear it.)

It doesn't have to be night shots. It just has to do with lights! Apparently I didn't make that clear. But hey, night shots ARE cool.

If I were to enter these might be mine:

I took this one earlier this spring. Just stopped to open the door and thought it looked kinda kool.
