Fremantle, down at the old surf club, again a late afternoon with a late sun or sunset?South Perth foreshore (if you can get your car up to the actual waterfront that is), that'd be mint in the late arvohappy to offer photographic services if you require dude! can send samples if need be Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guests Posted 16/07/08 02:55 PM Share Posted 16/07/08 02:55 PM cockburn industrial estate is my new favorite plenty of new concrete tilt panel buildings, a few painted in bright colours, metal sheeted walls, roller doors etc. bitumen is new and clean. its out in the open so theres plenty of lighttake photos early morning or late arvo as the light is soft and easier to take better quality photos. also take a tripod or stand of some sort. superdan, the places you listed are great for photos, but not so great for car photoswhilst the boat ramps/the river usually provide spectacular back drops, but its not the natural environment of a car and doesn't work as well as good roads/carparks. for good car photos the background wants to be interesting but not the main focus of the photo. you want somewhere clean and simple that enhances the car, not taking attention from it. 03XR6T, remember you are showing off you car, not the best locations in perth. also It might be stating the obvious but make sure it the cleanest its ever been and don't skimp on the tyre shine. also pay attention to the shadows/reflections in the paint. oh and unlike your avatar STAY OFF THE GRASS.good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ideal for what your after. Simple, effective etc. If you are planning on going there this weekend, let me know as im planning on taking some pics there. I work on King Edward Road so it makes life easier!But if you want backgrounds I took some pics of my recently departed bunky at Enjo. random buildings down near Leach hwy and behind AudioArt (??) etc but def to much focus on a background for MV entryOther locations I've seen are hillarys against the blue doors near launching ramps, grafitti walls in freo, trigg boat ramp (highly doubt you'd make it down there though) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guests Posted 17/07/08 01:36 AM Share Posted 17/07/08 01:36 AM Thanks for all the help guys Mike, I'll give some of those places a go & see what I come up with. I've had heaps of photos taken in the past but none of them seem to be up to scratch. It's so hard to get a decent photo Superdan, I've already got someone coming down with a camera to take the snaps but thanks alot for the offer! If she turns out to be no good I'll give you a hoy Ford Esky, where abouts in Cockburn are we talking?? Do you mean near the Stock road markets there or more toward Beeliar sort of way? Big concrete walls are always behind cars in magazine spreads so that can't be a bad idea Mat, I'm meeting up with Deonie some time in the arvo as she is helping me out with it all so maybe we can all get together & find some top locations? I'll definitely check out the place in Ozzy Park that Mike suggested so we'll be near you anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
