OLDER INFO:

Hey guys so I found some pretty cool industrial type buildings around Yorba Linda and thought it would be a sweet place to get some of us together and do a photo shoot. Mikepistoneater, Roger and I did a small shoot today with just a point and click camera. Here are some samples of a few of the shots we can get:

Need someone brave to climb up the roof (like me :squint:)

Can fit 5+ cars here (pretty planters :D)

These were all taken with a point and click Canon and I am no photo composition meistro so it would be awesome to get some guys with a legit camera out! I was thinking sometime in August on a Sunday, because all of these places are closed and no one comes to work on Sunday. We also showed up around 5PM so the shadows were already starting to ruin the shots. I think around 11-12 though there are no nasty shadows. All of these locations are on a single stretch of road, less than a minute from eachother.

Feedback guys!!!

they came out nice...told ya those planters were nicely placed...gj on that set up...

Agreed with a legit SLR camera these locations can look nice

big thanks to SpecialTeam Medical Services Inc. :cwm27:

haha ya they were a big help in setting this up...our photoshoot sponser

pictures and cars look great guys

count me in.

i propose we set the date the weekend before mazfest or the sunday following mazfest :bigok:

when's mazfest? if it's far enough i may be able to come through too if the car isnt on jack stands..haha

Cool, once we start getting some input I will update the first post with date/time info

gregs: Saturday, August 14th

:bigok: your car better be there!!

awesome..now i know to keep the projects to a minimal..haha

cheah! definitely. You should enter the car show ;)

since these spots are so chill I will offer to put together a cooler with water/sodas!!!

yay! :fruit:

photo shoot/barbecue would be even sweeter but that may pushing it =/

I'm down to go :icon_tup:

Let's hope for a slightly overcast day. Not likely, but it makes for the best lighting typically.

can i tow my car there? :hahano:

I'll have my POS civic there in no time!

sweeet! i'm in rev!

and +1 for a bbq!

Far too much information :sweatdrop

lololololo

umm yah. How about we just do what we did last time n' just bring pizza. That way no one is responsible for taking a grill home :sad:

whatevs

So what do people think? 8/8 or 8/15?

Edit: actually - either weekend should work for me :D: My girl should be down for the mazfest weekend so she'll probably wanna get in on the shoot...

word OP updated, keep it coming guys

edit you changed it okay

Looks good to me

Though that third shot is driving me nuts, I want to photoshop the other buildings' logos out of the glass (reflection)

I'm sure you know this already, but the lei hanging from your rear view is a HUGE distraction to the sleek cool color scheme the cars create....just putting that out there too.

I agree, 11:00 - 12:00 would be better since the sun will be at it's highest and the shadows will be minimal.

Also! remember the 2/3 rule. FILL THE FRAME!! :lol: the first shot is nice, but there's a little too much pavement and not enough focus on the cars. Cropping makes things more interesting as the mind wants to try and complete the image mentally. Just putting those tips out there for ya! :suspect:
