Update*
When I say exotic, I actually mean anything cool and clean that would look great in photos!

I think I have mentioned this before in a couple of other threads in the past, but figured I'd follow up and get something in the calendar now that spring is soon approaching and with that, clearer weather.

I've taken plenty of car photos of my own car to play with lighting and techniques, and now want to put that knowledge to use and photograph some proper cars.

Naturally you'd get a copy of all the photos edited and in full resolution at no cost, I just want to shoot some great cars in some select South Coast scenic locations at specific times of day where the light is at its most moody.

If anyone is interested, please let me know!

Examples of car photography (and others) can be found through: http://robbiekhan.co.uk/

Many thanks

No joke? The QV is the car I'm actually wanting to upgrade to from the M3 in a couple of years time!

Mind if I get in touch in a couple of weeks to sort something out with you?

Yeah, when it comes we'll sort something out. A 4C alongside would be cool too

I'll see if I can wangle an 8C owner of you'd be up for it?

For photos or for purchase? If the former, then that would be great!

If the latter, then I’m afraid a 4C would be out of my reach both in terms of practicality and finances tongue out

I know its far from exotic, our little A1 Competition Line is still as was from Audi, with all its graphics, so looks cool in photos. I wont be offended if its too normal and you give it a miss though.[url]

Grabber Blue 2016 GT mustang. Would probably make a great pic paired up with Rob's competition orange GT.

I did a mate's motorbike (CBR 1100) back in 2011, that was the first and only bike I'd done, and that was just for his use. Could give it another go with the now new knowledge and lenses!

The A1 Comp looks cool, indeed would make for some interesting photos.

Pat, the Mustangs together would be great with that colour contrast between them both.

I'm gonna have plenty to photograph it seems!

Def not for sale, best car I've ever owned, as for practicality, its not the best that can be overlooked for the smiles it generates

Sounds fun , why not

If you can get hold of an 8C owner, then that would be awesome!

Hi,

I have a GTV Cup, and some friends with other Italian goodies organise occasional local meets - there are always a number of interesting cars. If you want to come along let me know.

Hi Ross, thank you very much, that would be awesome to come along with the camera!

My contact details should be available through the profile bit if need be.

That looks great! If today's weather is anything to go by, then it's starting to get brighter and warmer now, so over the next couple of months I'll start getting in touch with everyone interested and go from there smile

Not sure what exotic means since we all have differing budgets, but I have an E36 M3 and live in Old Portsmouth should that meet the standard?

You would be welcome to come, as would any of the other posters on this thread.

Although we tend to be Italian car owners/fans, we do like all sorts of cars, so others would be welcome. We tend to meet on Saturday mornings, going to a venue where we can park up and get some breakfast too! This has often been The Departure Lounge Cafe in Alton, as we get friends coming from the South Coast, and other counties from Wilts-Surrey.

I think the first of this year will be on Saturday 1st April, but I will confirm that.

I am by no means a photographer, but below is a pic of some of our cars from one of last year's meets...
