Ey,

Thought I might point out that on the 13th of July it will be one year since this new forum opened up.

Yay for us, should do something to commemorate it or whatever lol?

Well, the Glenmaggie camp is happening on the 13th... maybe a group photo or something there?

We've come a long way in one year on here!

Post by **EFFalcon** » July 4th, 2008, 11:14 am

Get all of the active members, bring the cars and have then all rowed up, and get a top shot with all of the members in front of the cars (not individual, a group photo but have the cars behind.

Maybee a Bunnings car park? So there would be enough space to line the cars up..?

Post by **EFFalcon** » July 4th, 2008, 11:25 am

an organised group photo shoot would be good.
we can get 25+ cars to a mini, 40+ cars to a proper cruise.
a decent shot of all the cars in 1 would be fantastic.

All cars in 1 pic would need to be kind of semi circular (fanning out) or in some kind of grid array. At GOR 2004 I got a photo of all the cars parked in a line (well, the cars that were on the beach side of the reserve/carpark, not the ones on the road side) and there was no detail at all, just a long line of nondescript cars, as I had to walk out a long way to fit all the 50ish cars into the frame.

It would need to be a semi-overhead shot looking down/over all the cars I reckon. Either by utilising an existing structure at the chosen photoshoot location, or by bringing a ladder/platform for the photographer (hopefully Alex) to shoot from.

lets just park on eastlink, alex can stand on the entry to the tunnel and get a shot

LOL!!!
How about Southland car park??? Thats a multi level park so you could get sum1 with a camera on the next level looking down to take a picture.

i have seen a photographer for a smaller car club get up on a bigass ladder with about 10 cars out in a fan. never saw the end result tho, will ask my mate for the pic.

I work southland maintenance and security every now and then. Might be able to organise something if there was enough interest...

galapogos01 · Post by **galapogos01** » July 4th, 2008, 1:31 pm

something like this...

Post by **EFFalcon** » July 4th, 2008, 1:35 pm

top 1 i reckon, since we'll likely have a large amount of cars

Post by **pHaT`eL** » July 4th, 2008, 1:37 pm

Im definately up for that.
Anyone reckon the end of Pier35 would be busy on a Sunday arvo or something?

Kyle the ED4LTR · Post by **Kyle the ED4LTR** » July 4th, 2008, 1:39 pm

nah i think it would be good, but also have a shot with all the people in front of the cars.

Post by **Commando** » July 4th, 2008, 1:43 pm

Yep, definitely the top pic.

t1MMy · Post by **t1MMy** » July 4th, 2008, 1:59 pm

Hrmmm. What if we parked all the cars in a circle..facing in with all the owners in the middle of the circle.??
Am I getting a little to creative?? LOL

Post by **EFFalcon** » July 4th, 2008, 2:01 pm

car parked in circle means need a wide angle shot
you want to try and keep it tight.

perhaps a seperate thread for organising a photoshoot is in order.

this is more about a milestone!

Kyle the ED4LTR · Post by **Kyle the ED4LTR** » July 4th, 2008, 2:08 pm

yeh, well im picking up a chrome ED Monty grill 2moz to make the car look a lil more spiffy for the shoot, cuz im definently in if it goes down

What the hell are you talking about?

G3R3N · Post by **G3R3N** » July 4th, 2008, 3:59 pm

Is anyone familiar with the panoramic shots that some cameras can do? They are awesome. Kinda like a wide angle shot of around 290* or something of all the better looking e-series would be cool as. My camera can do it so I'd be happy to take some snaps
Photo album?

Happy Birthday!

Kyle the ED4LTR · Post by **Kyle the ED4LTR** » July 4th, 2008, 4:36 pm

I went and took a look at some of Alex Stojan's work, should get him to do this photoshoot, well as John said its a milestone

You mean this one?

This was another great shot too.

And then we had this on the 2005 Sorrento Cruise. It wasn't a big turnout, but it would be a great spot for a big aerial shot

XR_Lightning · Post by **XR_Lightning** » July 4th, 2008, 7:59 pm

lol at john & steve

man this was ages ago

Tell me about it. Look at my EA! It doesn't look like the same car!

Scotty got rid of his EA after painting it orange.
Shaun's CFi is now a Turbo
John's car is now white

So there's been plenty of changes since

Well done guys, when I first googled ford when my engine crapped this came up and thought it had been on for years especially seeing Commando's posts!

Top job and great bunch of helpful blokes, got alot out of it and sure will be plenty more!

A good shot could be the lower car park at Portsea Back Beach with some-one on the top carpark taking shots. Could fit every-one in that lower car park too. Be easy to block off lower carpark as there is another 3 carpark that the public can go to! A thought?!?!
