A good photoshoot location in Sydney?

david.orr · 03-03-2015, 11:52 PM

I haven't taken any decent photos of my cars to date.

Wouldn't mind a grassy, water or iconic background.

Any recommendation for a nice location?

if you wish to join me or help me with the photos (I'm a beginner), you're most welcomed too.

Thanks

Haha I wouldn't mind Quang as a nickname!

Anywhere really. You have a variety of views/backgrounds to choose from! I would also go at night so parking shouldn't be an issue. Let me know when and I might tag along if I'm free. I have a D90 with a few lenses and a tripod that I haven't used for a couple of years now!

A few places I've seen used by photographers

- Rhodes Shopping Centre underground carpark
- Very end of Darling Island Rd, Pyrmont
- Boat ramp on Foreshore Rd near Botany

Thanks wooshie, I will go have a look around. I will not be good enuff for the underground lighting in Rhodes parking but the roof with its covers may look ok?

Thank you! Trending towards 2 locations (i) Sydney Harbour surrounds and (ii) Rhodes/Top Ryde shopping centre carparks.

I will scout around. Keep suggestions coming guys! Thanks
