car photos? Where?
Discussion
Hi all.
Some advice please:
Am going out with a buddy and his 360 modena to take some good photos of said dancing donkey for him. Does anyone know any good locations between reading and oxford to take the photos? Last place i did was an esprit on brill hill outside of oxford (which i would recommend to anyone http://www.gravynet.com/photos/cars.html to see the photos, but its too often used.)
Any advice would be really appreciated!
Cheers
Matt

I know this is not what you are after but:
Anywhere that does not detract or distract from the car too much, such as:
An interesting brickwall.
A Church.
Country Road with no distracting road signs.
Field.
River backdrop.
Old Quarry
Old disused factory or ruined building.
Near old industrial heavy equipment, such as an old rusted train.
In a scrap yard with the stacked cars behind the nice shinny car.
The trick is to try and isolate the car from the background but still give the picture meaning.
I hope that helps and if it does not, just ignore me.
Have a look at the Gallery at:

There might be a few ideas there. Also have a look at the past events list as there are a lot of photos in there as well.

I didnt use any filters for the sunset photos. I set the exposure using the spot setting: You set the exposure on a spot of the thing you are taking a photo of, then lock it, recompose the photo and shoot. Took me forever to get the white balance right too, and by the time i got it sorted my hands were so cold i could hardly press the shutter anyway!
