Unoffical TM3 Photo Shoot

[Xenon]

Although this is mostly For Westsiders... All are welcome to attend.

I would like to set up a day... I\'m looking at November 5-7 (Fri, Sat or Sun) or 12-13 (Fri, Sat), for a photo shoot of our cars... I\'m talking brochure quality shots...

Some spots I was thinking: Square 1 Underground Parking (night time shots) and maybe a few empty parking lots here and there... during the day we can cruise to some locations and get some nice poses...

I\'m not asking for the whole car club to come, but whoever wants to come please do.

We can set up more specific times and dates in this thread. I want to get it done before the snow comes.

As much as I\'d like to attend I don\'t think I\'ll be able to make it. Getting increasingly busy lately. :(

btw...some suggestions for nice places to do photoshoots (not necessarily west end) - a few of my favorites:

- Bayview Village parking garage at night when it\'s empty
- Steeles East past 9th Line (great place for catching to fall colours)
- Lakeshore around the Humber Bay
- Eaton Centre parking garage upper deck (as you may have seen in some of my pics)
- Industrial area around Southdown Road (near the waste water processing plant)
- Gas stations
- Downtown area in general (though finding places to stop for a photoshoot isn\'t easy)
- The Docks - been meaning to do one myself there and haven\'t gotten around to it
- UofT :D

Come on people... I thought you were Canadian...

November shouldn\'t be too bad yet. Just have a warm winter jacket and you\'ll be fine.

I\'m in for the photo shoot. I\'ll put on a nice spring jacket.....its only November after all.

[Xenon]

Worse comes to worse, we can bask in the heat of the cabins of our 3\'s

It\'s not like it takes them long to warm up :P

[mEtH]

I can probably go on the 5-7 weekend with maybe a chance on the 12-14.

B-Day lands in between and not sure which weekend i\'ll be going out on.

[majic]

[bubba1983]

BEATS, BEATS, i call dibs on BEATING Paaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaatrick!

[Xenon]

Well tell bubba we say hi! You can always meet up with him and takes pictures in their fields. :D

[bubba1983]

FIELDS....man, i dont live in no hick country, lol
my cell is always in my msn screen name, if one of you guys are ever in town, jus gimme a ring, i\'ll meet up for a coffee or whatever....*thumbs up*

[Xenon]

Ok... time to decide on a date...

How is Sunday, November 7th? at say... 3 PM? We can take the photos, then go out for dinner... and then take some night shots if people are still up for it?

[bubba1983]

hmmmm............intriguing, spelling?

[-RJ3-]

I\'m good to go on that date!!!

[teambedlam]

I\'m In for that date.

[mEtH]

I think I am, not a positive yes yet.

[bubba1983]

sooo whats the deal for this, or is it still up in the air...?

[Xenon]

Looks like it\'s going to happen...

but, If we get crappy weather, we might reschedule.

[bubba1983]

doesn\'t seem like much intrest in this photoshoot thing?!?!?!? or am i blind?

[Xenon]

Well, we don\'t need like 20 cars there for the photoshoot, Although it would be nice.

It was just an Idea. If the weather is nice, I\'ll go out and do it alone if that\'s what happens. I just thought it\'d be nice to have some company.

Even if it\'s just 5 cars, it would be a good turnout in my eyes.
So far, I think the following people said they were coming....

Xenon
teambedlam
majic (no car yet, but he said he\'d like to help with the camera action)
RJ3 (provided we don\'t move the date to the 12th, but the 7th he said he sould be able to make it)
jimdragon8
bubba1983
Levitated
methodyst (probably says he...)

Might I add that we may be driving all around TO... I definately want a pic with the skyline (I\'m thinking Tommy Thompson Park) and perhaps a few signature buildings and/or some nice scenic places.


Now so far, specifically for the date of November 7th, only methodyst, teambedlam and myself are in. Anyone else?

[Hypothrml]

count me in too!

[bubba1983]

ah heck...the self-proclaimed 30 year old will be there....why not...what time roughly again.....

[Airman Jack]

I\'d like to join you guys, my \'rents are out in Etobimokoke so I kinda know the area. What time/where are you planning on meeting up? bringing radios?

[Xenon]

We haven\'t chosen a meeting spot yet.... anyone have any ideas?

Maybe we should meet at Tommy Thompson park?

(time will be 3 PM, yes bring radios.)

[Airman Jack]

it would help if I knew where Tommy Thompson park is :p

[Xenon]

I\'ll post a detailed map of TTP when we confirm that\'s where we want to meet.

[bubba1983]

*looks at watch* time is ticking....and all i hear is maybe this....maybe that...

[Hypothrml]

Weather forecast for the weekend doesn\'t look promising, God damn rain!

[Xenon]

I was looking at that too....
That kinda sucks....

Oh well... Plan B? or do we still want to give it a shot?

[bubba1983]

*looks at watch again* well...time still ticks...jus godda let me know...godda come from kitchener...don\'t wanna not be home one day, not check the computer...show up and then....nothing?!?!

[jimdragon8]

Hey Guys, if it is Sunday I am out, but Saturday afternoon I should be okay.

[Neo]

I\'d be interested... Just gotta know where and when?

This will probably be the first photo shoot with a Winning Blue Sedan... :)

Is this still on??

Lates,

[-RJ3-]

Very unlikely I will attend to the east side. But if you guys are doing anything in the west let me know

[Xenon]

Weather doesn\'t look like it\'s going to be friendly....

We\'ll rescedule for the spring, or just have a meet in 2005 at Tommy Thompson Park...

[Airman Jack]

HEY!! has anyone looked outside today?!! I\'d still be up for a drive and meet!

[bubba1983]
