I think I might now a good spot that shouldn't be too bad, it's near laguna beach area. I'll post it up when I get home later today. I think it would be nice to meetup before but we are all coming from different areas so it's a hassle to meet up somewhere and then drive to a second place. Maybe afterwards, those who want to, can do a pch cruise or drive somewhere to eat and what-not but I say we meet up at 9:00 to shoot and then figure something out.

Okay guys so here's my possible idea's..

Option #1
Back Bay Lake in Irvine/Newport
It's a discrete location and not many people come through this specific location of the lake. The parking here is nice and you can drive on the dirt and get close to the water for some solo car shots. You can take group shots in the parking lot if you want. The lake has bushes around that aren't too pretty but as a photographer I'm sure you could figure something out. I've actually shot at this location before briefly a while back.. Anyways
Here's the snapshot of the area from an aerial view

And a shot from the street view


Option #2
Aliso Beach in Laguna/Aliso
It's a nice beach parking location, no payment needed to park so thats a plus. This spot may be busy though thats the thing. So we'd have to make sure to show up early and they're may be people in the background and stuff but yeah..
So, here's an aerial snapshot

And a street view snapshot


So there's my suggestions, I can get addresses if we choose to do either one of these

Personally, I probably prefer Back Bay Lake because of its discrete location but I'll go for either and even any other option mentioned above.

if it's those 2 we're picking, obviously go for the 1st one, ive been to the 2nd one, and i didnt consider that as option 3 on my previous post just because that spot is kind of busy, anyways, hopefully nick can confirm the location soon

Absolutely, well it depends on the turnout. I'm assuming 10 ish people will actually show up but even if more it could accommodate more. If you look at the street view picture, we can all park where those three cars are parked closest to the street and wrap it around so as to keep us parked on the outskirts of the lot and then we can individually move our cars by the water opening to take solo shots.
