Car Shoot - Looking for a location??

Curran

Afternoon folks,

Long time Photography forum reader, dont post here much.

So Im a member of a car club and one of our members is trying to get a feature of his car into one of the car magazines. They dont have a photographer here in Ireland, but they said if he could get a tog, and if the pictures were OK they'd cover the car. So he asked me to do it.

Looking for a location, somwhere between Laois and Dublin, thats would suit a photoshoot. Has anyone got any recommendations??
Id like to take a few pictures in the following locations...
Industrial / Abandoned Building Sample
Landscape Sample
Quite Road...to do some panning shots and a few others, Im sure we'll come across a few of them on our travels

id be asking what kind of car it is first, and find a location to suit the car, a morris minor isnt going to look good in a disused carpark, lol. the road up to glendalough would be good for panning and landscape id say. also look through some previous editions of the magazine and see what stands out to you to get some ideas. ive never done any car shots, but i expect youd have to watch out for bad reflections.

It's a white super charged BMW 323

Nearly any location for a car shoot can look good if the shot is composed and lit well.
