Car photo locations in Bristol?

[Synchromesh]

Does anyone know of any good locations in or around Bristol which to get some snaps of my car?

Was thinking of either an industrial dockside location / under the Severn bridge / on one of the M32 bridges or just a multi story at night.

Any other ideas?

Thanks in advance

Millenium Square in front of the mirrored ball?

I think if you go round the back as though you are going into the car park you can then drive up in front of the Ibis...

Otherwise Queens Square has some great buildings in it

How about around Cabot Circus at night? In front of the car park entrance with the twin spirals at night would give a nice shot IMO.

That sounds like a nice idea raymanh.

You look like you're new on this forum. Why don't you introduce yourself in the South West section? Got a tasty DD / P&J - add it to your garage!

Definitely somewhere down by the docks/industrial museum looks good I reckon. Especially by the cranes off Prince St. Don't think you will get close enough to make the Millenium Square ball a decent picture!

ETA- There are actually a few other places I thought of whilst looking for somewhere to get an eBay shot of my barge...

Tunnel on Mina Road, St. Werburgh's (Just past the climbing wall): Loads of graffiti and quite atmospheric. Beware of the hippy commune beyond though

Also, this isn't entirely legitimate, however you can get right beside Cabot Tower off Upper Byron Place... Cracking location, the council vehicles go up there and no barriers AFAIK but do it discreetly

No problemo! Post the pics...

[LordGrover]

If you end up parking in an iffy place for photo may be worthwhile obscuring reg number before posting up here though.

Meh, I won't tell

Remember that random painted box that ended up on the traffic island by King St for a while? That was a good "spotted" challenge until the Council got arsey and stuck concrete blocks/a bollard around it?

Sure there was a thread on here...

[LordGrover]

That'll be this one then: click.

I Live in Severn beach, from here there is a good place to park with a cracking view of the bridge... In fact, you've given me an idea, might take the truck down there for a pic!

Grassy bit (city side) by the suspension bridge?
