HEY CREW,
We should all get together and do a big photo shoot of all of our cars sometime! Post it up on here we could do a BBQ and everything. Basically like our own little car show! What do you say? anyone down. I would say lets do it this weekend but i know Joe you are going to be gone. So how about the weekend after that! We could find a nice place to do it at? Families could come to!????
So lets say the weekend of 13th and 14th whatever day would work for you just post your in on 13th or 14th. Or if you have a better idea, through them out there!

Smoke, you got some good places that you go too. Which do you like best?

Smoke, you got some good places that you go too. Which do you like best?

eh..I say we leave it up to the pro. Different color cars require different settings for the best place...so, all the places I shoot are good for light colored cars (white, silver, etc) but not so ideal for dark colored cars (red, green, blue, black, etc)...but, if it comes down to it, I know a couple places in NN we could all shoot at, and not have to worry about looky-loos or people kicking us out

07-02-2008, 12:32 AM

yeah im definitely gonna try to make this. The free parking garage in the new downtown virginia beach area off independence would be a good place with the buildings in the background, not sure if it would be big enough though.

Thundacat

07-02-2008, 03:34 AM
