Ultima GTR In Surrey?

[AlexHillTVR]

Hi guys,

Just wondering if a GTR owner not too far from me (M25 J6) would like a little photoshoot so I can build up more of a portfolio? I can't promise commercial quality but would probably be fun! I just really have an urge to photograph one!

Few ideas of what I can do

Sadly I'm down Dorset way, but just wanted to say what a cracking post this is, good on that man

Thanks Bart, sadly Dorset is a bit far but thanks for your enthusiasm about the post!

I am based in South West London but unfortunately my engine is out and I am doing a number of upgrades this winter but perhaps in the new year?

That sounds great! Depending on when people are free we could do a little group shoot

Perhaps if we set a date for this people could make a nice convoy drive out of it between locations? I think seeing all the cars together would be amazing and we could get some great photos of them all lined up.

I'm all up for shooting cars individually though as then we can do rig stuff more easily to get those moving shots. PM me if you're up for an individual shoot. I reply to everybody but PH mail often goes to people's junk folders so if you don't hear anything in 24hrs message back on the thread.

Care for a nice vacation in Orlando? It's been over 80F and sunny all week… :-)

Expenses paid Ken? Sounds much better than the U.K. at the moment!

The Grasshopper is a great idea as a meeting place, good roads around there for overtaking too. I've got 2 individual shoots with forum members organised for this and next weekend (weather permitting). If they are successful then we'll do a big group one!

Ken, thanks for the offer dude! I'd love to come out to Orlando but need to be making money out of shooting cars first! In the future I'd love to!

Little update on this! First shoot has been postponed until Tuesday due to horrific weather tomorrow, so I should be able to upload some edits by Wednesday or Thursday!

Met Abbottsevolution yesterday for a little photoshoot, not the best weather but at least it stayed dry (damp) for us! Thrilled by the car and Steve has built a really fine example. Here are a selection of my favourite photos, excluding some from the front as we discovered the headlights steam up!

Would a little extractor fan on each pod help?

I'd expect so, a hairdryer is the quickest way to reverse the steaming up, so if it acts in the same way then that'd probably work!
