This photograph was the most difficult to shoot. There are four light sources, and not all equally bright. There are LEDs for the headlights and the interior; the brightest of them all, I had to turn them off before the picture was taken. Unfortunately the light underneath the car, used to light up the flames, was connected to the same switch, and not being as bright as the LEDs, it caused those to appear a bit overexposed, and the flames a bit underexposed.
Another light is on the side of the car, barely giving any light at all. The exposure was very long and it had to look dark, after all.
The flux bands were made white for a reason. In fact, I used a special kind of white parts that reflect black light very well. This is how they were lit. It took a few shots to get them bright enough.

Esta fotografía tuve que repetirla en numerosas ocasiones debido a la complejidad de la iluminación. Hay cuatro fuentes de luz, una general, muy débil, para iluminar el coche; LEDs para las luces y el interior; un foco iluminando las llamas por debajo, y por último, luz ultravioleta para las bandas temporales.
Los LEDs son los más brillantes, por lo que no estaban encendidos durante toda la exposición. El foco de las llamas, desafortunadamente, tuve que conectarlo a la misma base que los LEDs, por lo que se apagaban simultáneamente, dejando a los primeros un tanto sobreexpuestos y a las llamas un tanto subexpuestas.
La luz ultravioleta necesita una larga exposición para poder destacar entre luces reales.
