Just got done Zaino-ing the hell out the car, went out downtown last night thinking I could probably get a cool backdrop with the Winston Towers/BB&T building or something. I never really found a spot that had adequite lighting for a good photoshoot without setting my shutter to something rediculous.

I was just wondering if anyone from around here had any recommendations of maybe parking decks, or well lit places downtown where I could get some night shots. I was thinking maybe Wake Forest's campus might have something, I might go explore around there tonight.

your car is super hot... good luck with the shoot

(clear tails FTW)

Thanks, yeh i've been thinking bout getting them, just don't know if I wanna drop that much money on 'em just yet.

it is very worth it... my favorite visual upgrade besides the front plate delete

i love spotting my car in a parking spot soley because of my tails

slowcheetah-

In downtown, 4th Street/Marshall Street area is a good spot. Also downtown, the RJR plant makes a great backdrop (off Patterson Ave.), plus there is a small section of white brick pavement near Church St..my favorite place to take car pics..

I was thinking about the RJR plant, I might do that one afternoon, I just have to watch out for the sketchy crack heads roaming that area, last time I drove by the RJR plant I seriously feared for my life.

Haha, it's not bad. In the daytime atleast. :)

Seriously try 4th street, or near the church by the public library on 5th. West-end area is also a winner, lots of Victorian houses.

I live downtown, theres a couple good places. Off of 5th street just west of 52 theres this little cobblestone road next to an old plant of some kind thats pretty cool. Theres also a new building near the end of first street, they have this little driveway/road thing with almost no traffic thats pretty cool. Between 5th and 4th theres a road running behind the church on 5th street that has almost no traffic. Bunch of parking decks, probably more stuff I can't remember. Don't mind the sketchy crackheads, they generally don't do anything except yell.

Well I just bout a Canon 400D Digital Rebel XTi DSLR, should be in on Friday, i'm definitley going to be trying out the new camera this weekend. If anyone would like to joing me for a mini-shoot, your more than welcome.

slh350, Did you find your e30? I have bought 2 in the last 6 mths. Brother and I are headed to Rockingham this weekend to run one.

Slow, Take a run up the hill to parkway and you'll find 100's of good backgrounds!

Not yet, still working on the financial end of things. Looking at one in VA though. Slowcheetah if you need any help getting around downtown hit me up, I live right on 5th and Main. I'd like to do a mini-shoot but I'm driving a CR-V until I find a bimmer :D .

Welp, had some good success out by the RJR plant, as well as some random other places downtown. I need to upload all the images to my web space so I can post them, which I will probably do tonight. Here is a preview though:
