After going up to the Tire Rack in South Bend to get some new tires on my car with my friends Travis and Eddie, we got lost taking a creative way through town. After getting lost and but before really realizing we were heading the wrong way we found the best place to shoot in a long time! First Eddie just pointed out how run down and cool looking this building was and I decided to park the car out in front of it just to play around and see what I could get. The Car was filthy so I didn’t expect to get much. Below You can see what I got.

I only got a couple frames I was happy with of my car. MAKE SURE YOU Click on the Photo to view it Bigger! You really cant see much unless you view them large and on black.. Specially the portrait one.

After taking those photos of my car, me and Eddie decided to take a look inside the building. We were very surprised at what we found! This abandoned building had all kinds of cars mostly European from Audi to MG and there was even a Pontiac GTO. This was a great find and I got some pretty good photos.

This Pan of the Building took about 45 mins to stitch and save out. Working with the 7D Files has put extra stress on my computer and I really need to upgrade my ram to manage these new Higher Resolution Photos. With my 40D I never had any type of problem with the system being sluggish.. I am definitely not complaining though because the 7D’s 18 megapixels create some very crisp images even out of the small sensor!

Audi 5000 and Old 4 door BMW, not sure exactly what kind.

I am not sure what these two last cars are… Leave a comment if you know!

I Hope to make it back to this building before someone tear it down! I am going to go up and do some filming next time. I want to do a bunch of dolly shots and what not then bring it in to the computer add a little score and some motion graphic elements! So HOPEFULLY I can make that happen this summer soon!
