After seeing thread and photos of the DB4 Zagato, I contacted the photographer about having some shots done of mine...

The photos can be done inside a studio or at a location that would suit the car!! Am struggling to think of anywhere near ish to me....

Any one have any suggestions, I am in Bracknell, Berkshire, 20-30 mile radious??? I havnt spoken to the photographer yet and he may have some suggestions.

Obviously want somewhere that will reflect the cars looks.....
Thought about maybe around the pits at Brandshatch or something like that...

Thanks...... Will try and find details on google. It's more about having that specific photographer as I like his portfolio.... I will speak with him and find out if he knows about it. smile

As has been said - Brooklands, especially on the banking. Or there is now a car park (was the runway) in the middle, which would give you shots of MB World / banking in the background.
For countryside shots with views in the background - Newlands corner, Box Hill, Leigh Hill. But, all would need to be early morning because of traffic.

I think Guildford Cathedral is a nice backdrop - quite moody design - would suit your car wink

I'm in Fleet so only 5 mins away or so from there. Let me know if you do this , I'd be interested in popping over and seeing exactly where you mean.

Cheers,
Nick

You're not allowed to shoot there though. Private property of the national trust and they insist on owning copyright if they do allow to you shoot on their grounds.

How about the lay-by just off the twin-bridges roundabout? There's so many photogenic locations in Bracknell you're spoilt for choice, really ... ;-)
