Default Beachy Head photo shoot suggestion

This post maybe in the wrong section.
I was thinking we could possibly do a photo shoot up on Beachey head early one morning. It could be a moving car photo shoot along the road linking Beachy Head to Birling Gap. It then equals some action shots of the cars.
Not quite sure when to do it due to the weather though?

Nice idea, I would be up for that! Maybe an early, cold and frosty morning with a low winter sun could make for a good backdrop along with the location?

I was thinking the same.

Pistonheads had a GTR up there yesterday and the pics looked good.

I wouldn't recommend the food at The Brittania, probably better off eating at The Pilot down the road if we were going to eat anywhere.

I'd be up for bringing my camera along for this. An earlyish start would probably be best like NL03Scooby said, maybe an hour or so after sunrise.

This will happen, but it will probably be very short notice as we need to snatch the weather window, to grab a nice cold crispy one, rather than a moist one ......

Weather for Saturady looks to be bright and crisp.
So 7:30 or 8:00am (I'm easy) meet up in public car park adjacent to Beachy Head Visitor Centre (not Pub car park).

Propose to do Group Shots in/around there 'EVO' style
Active shots/Video on bends leading to/from Burling Gap.
More Group shots at Burling Gap

Then see how we are doing for time.....
Looking for idea's for a cheap fry-up or Bacon Sarny afterwards.

2. Big "E"
3.
4.
5.

Shame, the weather is epic down here today and it's set to be even better tomorrow. Clear blue sky and nice cold induction air - took the car out this morning and it's flying

I did think that on my way in to work this morning. The side roads here were pretty frosty so I guess up there it was quite white.
