When I shot for a manufacturer in the UK we used to look for roads that crested a rise and shoot with nothing but sky behind, parking the car on the ridge just before the road dropped downhill. Magazine and newspaper use went up by around 2000%! And always shoot early morning or evening. My day would start on site at 4am, clean the car off, start shooting at 5am until 8am in June or July. Cars, especially Cobras, only look their best in soft light and at dawn, the background sky changes from purple to a pale pink. Then the sun comes up and the magic is gone....
