Pt. Magu Photoshoot - preview

[johnrando]

This past Saturday I joined M3clubla in a photoshoot at Pt. Magu Naval Air Base, with proceeds going to Wounded Warrior.

We started at a car detail shop, then took rolling shots on PCH in Malibu (small video clip in url), then shot in an airplane hanger (a few pics). We were going to have a jet with the cars, but that part got cancelled last minute. I'll post the pics when I get them, mine were just a few misc. pics of the day. Good group of people and cars (mine was probably the slowest one there, lol).

Taste of the shoot.

How the hell did I miss this thread? Seriously.

Anyways.

Great pictures. The car looks fabulous. The suspension makes the car sit perfect IMHO. And I keep expecting to see puddles of black paint under the car, the finish is just dripping wet looking. And the last picture you posted is a keeper. Although it must have been hard for you to stand like that, looking like you're leaning on the car but not actually touching it. ;)

Also, never noticed the beads around your rearview. Are they a representation of the Tibetan prayer flags?

[johnrando]

Thanks Dane and Ryan for the compliments on the pics. Love the quote about the black paint on the ground Ryan!

WRT beads, that's a salute to my New Orleans Creole heritage. I wasn't born there but my parents, grandparents, etc. are from there, and I lived there off and on. Those are Mardi Gras beads.

Ah, ok. Gotcha.
