Night-shoot test with Tokina 11-16 f2.8. Light-painting cars...

Has anyone gone out to play with this lens at night?  I took this out Friday night and am very impressed.  As usual I tried a few different things and learned a few other things.  There was no moon out, so all lighting is from my ever growing collection of flashlights.  Also as usual, whenever I go out to shoot with my friends Todd and Butch, I tend to forget something.  Tonights something: My tripod.  Fortunately Todd had a spare so all was not lost.

All shots with 40D, Tonkina 11-16. Wanted to see how it did wide open at night. Going forward for night time I think I would raise the ISO to 800 ish to capture the stars, but I was not displeased by this lenses performance!.
