GFC 2012 Photo Calendar
« on: May 16, 2011, 10:11:28 pm »
If any paid members are interested in having their Fiero(s) including in a 2012 photo calendar for the Georgia Fiero Club, please post your comments.

My thought is to have a calendar printed featuring members' Fieros, to be sold at cost or maybe above with the extra going into the club coffers.

This project would have to be done before we lose the summer sunshine and vivid colors. I would be happy to do the photography without copyright claim, although you would have to sign a release granting non-compensated limited usage permissions to the GFC.

Here are a few shots I took of my car, so you can see the quality:

We would also have to come up with an interesting and photogenic background for each Fiero (beautiful lake in the background, on a race track, etc.).

Please let me know your interest, comments, ideas and suggestions...

Best,

Fiero GTB

All I got from the link was a white page.  My thoughts about limiting to paid members is that it might limit the available cars.  Some of the non-members have some nice cars.  Jeff and Theresa have a nice 87, Ron Rizzi has 3 nice cars, and there are others.   
There are three kinds of men:

1.    The ones that learn by reading.
2.    The few who learn by observation.
3.    The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.    Will Rogers

Here is my 2cent. I think that is a great idea. I would buy a few, I just wish mine had a good paint job so I could actually be in it.when would you want to shoot? I have acess to some pay only areas on Lake Allatoona and several wooded areas.

I think you could attract more participants if it wasn't limited to dues paying members.  Maybe even accept some good quality digital photos submitted by the owner who may not be able to make a photo shoot, subject to your approval of quality and content, of course.

Please try cutting and pasting this link into a browser for samples of the quality I would like to see for the GFC Calendar photos:

All good points...  although, personally, I still believe participation should be limited to dues-paid members because, otherwise, why join if you can participate in special things like this without paying annual dues?

Of course, I will go with club concensus. ;- )

Post your picture with pip, or put them in our club photo gallery.

I tried PIP, and posting to the GFC Photo Gallery w/o success.  I might have to phone you tonight to see if you can help me trouble shoot if that's okay?

Did you register with the gallery before trying to post? I didn't get any registration request.

Sorry, guys, I've had to hit Pause on this one. We had to abandon our condo to have some repairs done, so Nancy, Susan, Fifi, et al. and I have been living in a hotel with our two Maine Coons and it looks like it might continue through the end of this week. I will be lucky to show my mug at C&O this Sunday. Will keep you advised.... ;- )
