Simple actually, this was late at night. I set my camera to AV mode, to f/8. Put my wallet on the ground with the camera. The lens rested on my wallet to point it up slightly and pressed the shutter button when I saw a car approaching. That exposed for the cathedral in the background and the streak of headlights was painted on the 15 second exposure! 🙂
