Default DelVal Photoshoot Meet

<----- Teh photo guy.

Who would be up for a photoshoot meet? I know a couple people want stuff like rolling shots, etc. of their S2k, so let's do it!

I live outside of Atlantic City, and this area gives a decent variety of locations: city shots, parking garage, the AC tunnel (cool shots to be had there), middle-of-nowhere roads....plus the general location where I took the second Miata rolling shot is a good spot to have a photoshoot, logistics-wise. It was near Batsto, so cars could park there, while each person gets a turn for photos. Much more manageable that way.

I also have access to a pro all-digital photo lab, so we can get big prints done (I can do 13x19's myself), mounting, all that good stuff.

My photobucket here: http://s55.photobucket.com/albums/g136/GinoGT/

Couple rolling shot's I've done of my friend's Miata:
No photoshop.....just some good ol' putting my equipment in harm's way, the way it's supposed to be



My old car at Harrah's parking garage:


The main things to be hammered out, besides interest in a photo meet:
1. Location, whether the attendees would want to come down here and the surrounding areas, or if you guys know some better spots.
2. Date. I usually have off Sundays, Mondays, and Wednesdays. Wednesdays would be great because my friend with the Miata is off, and I really liked shooting from his car, the back end is so much smaller than the S2k, I could comfortably get some pretty sweet angles. Other wise, we would just use our own cars.

A.C. is quite a trip for me. Maybe somewhere in Jersey thats not so far from Philly. Sundays work best for me, since I work 2 jobs, and the week isn't ever gonna work for me.

Nice photos by the way

Sometime between now and the weekend of the 25th would be good. The 1st weekend of september is out, since I will start moving into my house!!!

Thanks for posting this idea up
Roger

Nice pics Gino

What lens did you use for the pic of the moon?

Good idea for the meet, I'd be down to help out and learn, I just picked up a Rebel XTi recently.

The Moon pic was either my old 20D or 30D, with the 400/5.6L, pretty sure I had the 1.4x converter on too.

As for a spot closer to Philly, any ideas? Preferrably someplace quiet with very little traffic, and scenic (or at least photogenic)
