Well, theoretically, my Nikon did.

The car is my '90 535i 5spd, on a long road trip.
I was driving into the sun, glanced into the rear view mirror and saw the golden glow on the buildings in an old abandoned farm yard. Whoa ! U-turn and get out the camera.

Shaky long-exposure (handheld) in Malibu a little while ago. The moon is extremely bright tonight. I wish I had brought my tripod.

Max, I really like the barn shot and the one with the red bimmer & shed! All the ones in that set are very nice.
