Picture locations

Ok so I know there was talk last year of meeting up and having a picture day. So I would like suggestions from everyone since I still don't know my way around very well. We need a place that is ok with multiple cars, that will allow the chance to take pictures of the cars without a ton of people getting in the way, and someplace with good scenery.

So throw out suggestions and I will get to researching.


Thanks.

I think I've suggested this before and I know it's far away, but I've heard that parts of Gary, IN are a friggin' ghost town with large abandoned buildings.

The Elk Grove Forest preserve has some good spots for lots of cars and pics & not a lot of peopl....I"m sure there are some better spots around though....

hooters!

Noted to smack Jesse on Sunday.

Thanks to Eric and Anthony for the real suggestions keep them coming.

I wish my mother still worked at the Tribune, they have a parking lot both in Downtown Chicago with a good view and another empty lot somewhere off Grand that had a good skyline photo opp. Oh well, but I do have a suggestion is Calumet Park near me, open lot and a beach but where the lot is at is near a Park beach House so it blocks the lake side view.

I overheard Brian asking Jesse that very same thing at Vic & Jackie's a couple of weeks ago.

Why should this thread be any different?

No way in hell am i driving and getting out of my car in Gary, IN without having a shotgun on me. As for a location, I have no clue but what about one of those parking garages that lets you park on the roof and maybe have the skyline in the background? There is one by my gym but it doesnt have many spots up there and its usually packed.

If there's a group of us and we post sentries, we should be fine.

smart man............small, but smart........LOL

an abandon barn somewheres

There are some good places in Waukegan on the Lake Michigan Circle Tour....abandoned buildings and the lake view... Maybe this should be a cruise we take on a nice Saturday or Sunday. Lots of places to go and you drive through ALOT of towns all along Lake Michigan. Vic and I have done it a couple of times but would be cool to do with everyone.

Also, Illinois State Beach Park is in Zion and they have ample places to take pics .... well at least they used to. I haven't been there in quite a few years.

Bull Valley has abandoned barns!

An abandoned abattoir. Maybe with some old guts hanging off of hooks and steer skulls. Cooooool.

Eric, thank you for putting the definition in that link.

Glad I didn't click that link.

There are some cool places up in WI where I used to live ,as well as out in Lake Geneva, we should schedule a Sunday cruise out there sometime as well, I know ALL the fun backroads.... hee hee
