    Napier: Nice places to take photos

    I was just wanting to take some photos of my nice clean bike, but I'm struggling to think of some scenic places.

    Lights or water look quite nice so I'm sort of thinking along those lines. Anyone that knows Napier, can you think of any scenic photo places?

    Thanks guys.

    How about at the waterfalls at the end of marine parade??
    I'm pretty sure you can get the bike in close...

    Cool. Thanks for that. Will go have a look tomorrow, see if I can get anything.

    Anyone else in Napier who is remotely interested is most welcome. Just give me a PM and I'll get back to you with times etc. Someone with a good camera and good camera skills would possibly help. I'm only using a shitty digital camera.

    Hey there
    Another idea to fit in with the theme of Napier is in a vineyard
    I am thinking the Mission driveway??

    Wait a few days when the leaves are all green

    Cheers

    Well, here's the outcome of the first lot of photos taken. On Bluff Hill, camera skills by Speights Bud. The 3rd pic has been submitted to the KB calender, good luck Spada!

    Would you be able to post/send a copy of that pic? Just to be sure I know where you're talking about.

    Oh, and for mine and others viewing pleasures.

    Infront of the Rothmans building is a good place, but probs more suited to an older bike. Got some good pics of a GB400TT Dad had there. Look even more deco when use sepia tone.
    If it's action you wan't the new round-about at the start/end of Church Road is good for getting the knee down, just watch out for the off camber bit's. I had a little brown pants moment there not to long ago.

    between the rothmans building and the port there is a stretch of road with a concrete sound barrier on one side, I don't think there's a footpath but it could make for a nice 'industrial' type shot.
