Putting a call out there for any owners or contacts you may know of interesting cars i.e. sports cars, classics, hot rods :shock: for some light painting at night of their vehicles. Im looking to take images at night/dusk and try out this technique - http://longexposuretips.blogspot.co.uk/ ... -cars.html I think we could get some good shots using this technique and scouting a good background.

If it comes through Im happy for any other members to join in the fun :)

I'll be up for it and can volunteer mine if we can't find any others - I also have a location in mind for it too.

It looks like this - not exactly a sportscar or hotrod but it looks sportyish :)

My car is a fairly conservatively styled saloon and there are thousands of them on the roads, so probably not what you had in mind. I know of a couple of members who have something a bit more exotic and I'll PM you with the details so that you can approach them directly.

Just remembered about this thread.

David - now the nights are longer do you want to try light painting your car? It looks like it has some nice curves that we could highlight. Havent really found a nice location. Some of the larger car parks on the Purley Way may suffice. Where did you have in mind?

There's a patch of empty ground on Purley Way between John Lewis Home and PC World :) So looks like we had something similar in mind! Failing that, Sainsbury's is 24/7 so might be another good option?

It'll be a few days before I'll have time for it sadly but I'll ping you when I know more.
