AZ Challenge: Sunrise/Sunset + TL shoot

I personally believe if you can capture a beautiful sunset/sunrise picture with a car...you my friend have taken the best picture ever!

So this thread is like a challenge for all you photo-taking-lover.

The challenge is to go take your TL and find a beautiful spot in your area and capture the sunset/sunrise with your TL..oh don't photoshop it either!

I'll start first. This was capture yesterday at Joe Pool Lake in Arlington, TX

A buddy of mine with a pretty sick camera and lens brought his setup to our b-ball game last night (9:00 tip-off -- a late one), and we took some pictures afterward. He just got a new tripod and wanted to try it out, but his car was dirty. Mine wasn't, as you may have guessed.

Here are just a few:

It's freaking nasty here in Texas right now too. I took those pics this evening after the Houston to Ft. Worth drive and the car is filthy.

It was actually raining while I was taking those pics.

Your car on the other hand always seems to look like a mirror

Thanks!
