Rig Shots!.First try :-)
The materials to build my homemade rig came in the mail this afternoon. Couldn't wait to try it out.

Forgot to wipe off my lens before shooting (hence the random artifacts throughout the photo ). Also need to work on the proper shutter speed. All my shots came out way underexposed (3 second exposure), so the adjustments I made in PP added a bunch of noise.

I'm pleased for my very first try, with practice I'll get the hang of it.

^Yeah I know that some folks use pretty long shutter speeds. I'll be experimenting with different ones for sure.

Thanks man. Here is the setup (2 suction cups, 3 clamps, ball head, 10' EMT pole). I really need a UWA lens, 17mm isn't wide enough for using a 10' pole (but I already knew that, more things to buy! )
