Just got my 2011 GT a few weeks ago and wanted to take some cool pictures of the car.

I've been thinking about going to a park or somewhere similar, but nothing around me really strikes me as a cool place.

I'm in 19064, so I'm thinking of something relatively close.

Any suggestions?

 

What part of town are you in?

 

I'm out in the suburbs. Delaware County.

 

I'm Not that familiar w/ Delco. Have you tried any parks or golf courses? How about Longwood Gardens? If you're feeling adventurous, go to the "Plateu" at Fairmont Park, it has a stunning view of the skyline.

I'd also look for old stone buildings as a backdrop. It doesn't matter if it's a church or a firehouse, just use the stone as a "curtain".

 

I'm in Jersey and only go to PA for the airport and hospitals. On this side of the bridge I usually just try to find either an industrial backdrop, or go to the other extreme with nature's beauty

 

Golf courses are a bit hard to get into out in suburbia. I could ride around and look for a nice church with a parking lot. I know there are some abandoned gas stations around. Maybe I could pop in one of them.

I've been meaning to get up to Fairmont Park because I need to get pictures of the Phanatic statues that are in there. Just a little side project. Maybe I could combine both of these projects and get them done with one trip?

 

I love the abandoned gas station idea! There is a Citgo around here with a sign that still says $1.87 for regular...don't I wish!

 

I'm hoping to find one close, but I think I remember seeing some on some back roads up near Jim Thorpe last time I was up there. I need to go back for a drive and just have my camera with me.

I'm bound to find somewhere that will create some cool pics

 

In front of the Wachovia Center with the Hawks holding the Stanley Cup. That would be a perfect backdrop for a shot. You should be able to take it later tonight.

 

It would be a much better picture in front of the United Center after the Flyers take Game 7 on Friday.

 

interested in the results, would loev to have some pics of my car in the city as well.

 

Wow, nice way to make new friends...

 

Why the change in Avatar? Flyer logo not appropriate anymore?

 

Playoffs are over and Blackhawks won. This thread is about photography. If you want an approppriate thread to frequent, go here...

Sorry about the hijack...couldn't help myself.

 

Hit some of the back roads for old gas stations. Might even be able to find some stations that still showing under a $1.00 for gas. Would make a great backdrop for a picture.

 

I think I know of a few back road I could take, just need to find some time to actually get out there and take the **** pictures.

 

I'll be up in the Jim Thorpe, PA area this weekend and I remembered this little spot.

Google Maps view

The guy that owns the property usually has cars all over the place, but this little "gas station" doesn't usually have anything in front of it later in the afternoons. I'm really hoping that it's empty in front of it because I think it could make for an awesome spot to take some nice pictures.

I want to get some pictures in this weekend before I get the stripes painted on next week.

 

Linvilla Orchards in Media, PA = great pics
