Sydney MR2 Photoshoot (Date TBA but looking between Xmas & NY)

Hey everyone,
 
Tried to get this going before, but it was delayed. Now that there's a few MR2's that have been "completed" so to say (Julian, Rob, Nick & Dylan etc) & I have forced annual leave between Xmas & New Year, looking to organise a photoshoot to give my Nikon a workout Canon users welcome too of course.
 
As I mentioned before, you don't need a MINT & PERFECT example. We have photoshop/lightroom & can remove or work around imperfections. Photography involves finding beauty in anything. So whether you want to:
 
Practise/fine tune your photography skills
Just bought a your first SLR & want some free tips
Don't own one @ all & simply wants some nice shots for your for sale ad
Want some keepsake memories of your youth or MR2 before it's run down or wrapped around a pole
 
You're welcome to come along. Note, MR2's will be given preference, but if you're bored & just want to hang out & bring your daily or other project car, time permitting I'll happily work with them too.
 
Quick examples of what kinda shots I'll be looking to take (forgive the low quality photobucket uploads):
 

 

 

 

 
Location: Most likely Western Sydney industrial area near Glendenning or near Eastern Creek.
 
Note: ALL MR2 models welcome. None of this AW11 "we're the real deal & SW20s are for hairdressers" BS or "they won't like me cos I have an auto Spyder" mentality
 
Open to suggestions on the date/location of course, so feel free to chime in.
 
Cheers,
Jay

    I'm super keen for you to take some photos of my car. I'll be unavailable from Dec 24 to Jan 3 though.

    Really keen to do yours Nick. I'm sure I can work with it.
     
    Rob, that's a shame. I can probably do yours at a later date then. In fact, if yours is clean & you can do a bit early tonight, I can probably do it then.

    Damn, so your annual leave is right in the middle of while I'm away?
     
    I'm not sure if I can get to the meet early tonight, or if I'll even have time to wash my car first.
    Are you getting there early anyway, or only if I do?

    Only if you do. Just send me a text message & we'll sort the feasibility if you can.

    Anyone else interested in this? Date or location preference anyone?
     
    Here's some pics from a photoshoot I did only 2 days ago:

    If it could be on the 27th I'd be able to make it, but I assume that's not possible.

    27th actually sounds pretty doable. Thanks Voodoo, I love that bokeh lense. My 50mm prime crop sensor is annoying me sometimes.
