Photo shoot Date
 

It was suggested I make this a poll.

All in favor of doing the Hoover Dam Photo shoot on the 12th of March, 2006...

Should have added a I dont know.... Cuz..well, I dont know. lol

For a daytime shot, anytime from 11:00 am to 2:30pm is good (little shadowing from canyon walls).

I think a daytime shot would turn out better than nighttime.

The best time for a shoot in a place like Hoover Dam would be right around 5-6PM. The lighting will be optimal.

You want the sun to have just barely started sinking into the horizon.

Because of the canyon walls at that specific location, after 2:30 p.m., heavy shadowing occurs. I suspect in march, this will happen a tad later, maybe cl,oser to 3:00p.m.

Maybe the shadows will work for us (I suck at photography, except at crime scenes). If you want to come out to the dam to look the area over, let me know and I can work something out.

Just realized, is anyone's schedule gonna be a problem with this date due to the NASCAR event on that day?

Hopefully the weather will cooperate.

We're still on for this right?

GASP! Forgot that it was this weekend. I have to work the Nascar races all weekend. Plus I still don't have my car.

Everything is still a go for this weekend. Hopefully most who signed up can attend. Was not easy to set this up. I got the final approval back yesterday from Washington DC. The times I have it scheduled for is 1200-1500 on Sunday.

I was thinking we could meet beforehand for lunch. Anyone have a place in mind?

Yeah, sorry guys and gals but I'm not going to be able to make it this weekend. I have to work at the Speedway for NASCAR and World of Outlaws. I'll be busy all weekend :(!

Damn, you had to go all the way to the top? I wish that I had my car for this. :(

I can probably actually break away from the races for a couple of hours to shoot the pics.

Aye, we have some admin folks who don't care for the police too much. They were pulling all sorts of BS. So I just went around them to a buddy of mine in DC who greased all the wheels.

We're still a go.

Still in here as well. Hope the weather holds. Mabey meet in the Henderson Bestbuy parkinglot 10am ish or so?

You kick @$$.

Sounds pretty good if noone comes up with any other ideas.

Wish you had it back, too.

Just work sat and get one of your newbs to work sun for you. ;)

I can't go now because I have to go to some stupid birthday thing. I will try to duck out of it as early as I can and hopefully you guys will still be there. Man I wish the smileys would work because I would insert that mad one right here ___.

Here: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

Just say you got the sh*ts and can't go. No one wants someone with the sh*ts to go to a b-day party anyway.

I might be able to go, but I didnt sign up on the original list... is it still okay if i go??

I don't see why not. :)

Come on down if ya like. 15-20 vehicles fit no probs.

BestBuy sounds good.

I'am there for sure. Man I hope the weather is nice.

I might tag along as well. Just gotta change some parts on my Z...

Where is the Best Buy you guys are talking about, and where in the parking lot do you want to meet?

US95 & Sunset Rd.

If you make it there you'll be able to find everyone.

I'll probably meet you all at the dam - why don't we arrange a 2nd meeting place at one of the smaller parking lots on the AZ side at 11:45 for those of us who are sleeping in late??? I'm guessing that side is where we descend from, so I'll be at the first lot on the AZ side between 1130 and 1145.

No need to cross the dam to get where we're going.

Maybe a BC location would work.
