[ryans]

Lets have a Photographers Meet at 7PM at Togo's at the McCarthy Ranch shopping center this Saturday Night 8/5/06.

Sounds like it's going to be a good one. 10 cars seem to be a bit on the shy side though.

[imported_STP03Bluesi]

I am the only one not on the bay side:(

[///M3-=FiN=-]

Set something up and we'll see what happens.

[VDMTom]

I'm going to throw up an idea.. San Leandro Marina ?

[Cali Agent]

OH man why haven't been on this in a while? Are we still going to do this????

[imported_bdougr]

I would attend as well.
There is another location I have used in Milpitas
McCarty Ranch business park (north of walmart)

it has a nice clean brick paver and tall palm trees. Low traffic on the weekends.

Damn, I wish I could go. NJ ain't exactly driving-distance, though.

Would you guys be interested in meeting at Mc Carthy Ranch at 7PM August 5th. I know it's going to be super crowded so a nice restuarant might be out of the question. There is a Togos there that we can meet up at and talk for a bit then head over to the spot and take some pictures.

I'll bring my NSX and I'll invite some other cars too. Please let me know who can make it.

1.) Ryan.
2.) Marty
3.) Ron

sounds like fun.I will be there for sure.Can't bring my 510 as its all apart right now.

[///M3-=FiN=-]

I'd luv to go but it's a little far for me (Northbay). Maybe next time...

[ryans]

I think a lot of people are going to this. I posted it up on other forums as well. Should be some STi's, NSX's, S2K's and then a few Z3's too.

I was thinking if someone can do a small write up on how to take nice pictures at night/dusk I can print it out and give it to the people who need it. Heck I need it. I'm not too good at night shots but I want to learn and I know a lot of other people do too.

My friend sent me the thread on this over at the i-club forum. I'll be coming but my car is a Cressida...nothing special. Im more interested in taking pics of other peoples car! Hope to see you guys there!
