We Have Enougth Money For The Banner

[Bullet32]

I was thinking we could do something on the Saturday afternoon - 4pm onwards as that is the better time in regards to light levels,

We can do outside Kevin Rudd's workplace or this other place that i've found on google maps here

Your call guys.

Sounds like a great idea, I think we should definitely organise it.

I know that, ie the top is one layer, as is the bottom or they are both the same layer, and overlayed on each photo, even so I'm just saying they are good subject matter and good pics, so are yours.

I'm not trying to pick on Mark's banners, they are quite good... What I'm saying is that the banner needs to be simple and striking. If there is too much going on it wont draw the spectators eye.

i reckon get rid of a pic of a car and just have a big banner wiht skylines act or something

i have a feeling if everyone is at a car show, and theres a bunch of the same cars, people will know we are a car club. problem is with a picture of a cartin car, u exclude others and i dont reckon it's diverse enough. by doing a artsy banner, with jsut text, i think that will grab peoples attention as it will be simple yet striking, then you can let the cars talk for themselves !!!!!

but thats what i think, and i haven't put any money in or anything so feel free to ignore what i think

You can get some nice shots there at night. see thread http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Ph...html&st=200

If we wanted a banner that didnt have a car picture in it but still represented the club and location, we could have something like this... (see attachment).

Why cant I link pictures from my Photobucket account? - Every time I try I get the message "Sorry, dynamic pages in the tags are not allowed...

I like the idea of getting Parl House in the shot more than Telstra Tower and if you travel to Auto Salon etc there is nooo mistaking where you're from. I had no idea what Telstra Tower was before I moved here.

i know it's a commodore, but what about here as a location, or even without a car n just add in some text ????

ive got the day of tomoz so ill be out and about tonight getting some shots so ill add em in tomoz with some text etc...

but yeah, , location? (sorry for the commo haha )

edit, did a quick edit with some text....ill try get a similar photo tonight and do a good copy, basically no car, none of the carpark, so ill try get in a bit closer to the water, and ill broaden out the image a bit, tone done the brightness so theres more detail. im thinking if u were going to do an image like this though, you would want a car if it isn't only going to be text.

btw mick, my photobucket works, so yeah???

and yes...im bored haha

LOL Gus why are you posting dirty Commos in SAU??

Is that your mate that wants to come to the cruise?

[Gus-]

maybe haha, at the moment he's the only mate who bothers to come out on photoshoots with me, other than that it's all landscape stuff.

it's actually a pretty nice example of a calais, super six....still no skyline though.

i duno haha im bored so thought id throw in some more examples of something for the banner

[GTRKat]

Haha fair enough. I might let you take photos of a real car one day

[Gus-]

u wish your car could look as good as my photos do haha

Not really.

But sice we're in the banner thread, you could use a sexy car like this!!

[Gus-]

wow nice pic lol, like the depth it looks really good.

who wants to photo shop it in insted of the commo haha

[GTRKat]

SSSchwing from CC is an awesome photographer. I have to pick the hi res ones up from him soon actually.

[Gus-]

it's always good when you see a location that is so overdone, photographed really well. hopefully i can get some good photos on the cruise, learning so much everytime i go out on a shoot, loving the new camera

[Xmetal]

Not really.

But sice we're in the banner thread, you could use a sexy car like this!!

and that's exactly the time of day I want to use that location for.

Also i'd be bringing my big bag of tricks with me so I can do shots similar to this....

(obviously I won't be getting the whole car in the shot)

[Michele]

That shot looks fantastic - noice one.

correct me if I'm wrong but that 1st pic (the 32) was probably taken very late at night or very early, theres a restaurant nearby, so can't get there as soon as it gets dark. Something to keep in mind.

[GTRKat]

Mine was taken on a Friday night about maybe 11ish....

ahh, you dont need to go near the resturant to get into the tunnel, u enter up the other end not the lake side end. meaning none of the public servents / politicians will need to worry about they're lovely dinner being ruined.

i reckon the tunnell is a bit over done though....if we are game we could try for the museum...me and some mates got up there once real close to the doors for about 45 mins before any security turn up...weren't happy bout it though

[GTRKat]

I'd kinda go lateish though... I felt like such a dodgy bastard in there cause it's so not meant for cars!! Don't think I'd like to get caught or have to explain it to someone!
