Alpine A110 Legende GT shoot
A recent photoshoot at Thruxton motor circuit with the limited edition Alpine A110 Legende GT in its new Abysse Blue colour way.
It was an interesting afternoon's shoot as we had multiple areas to shoot in while the weather was deteriorating all the time. Luckily everything was quite close as we were using the pit lane, skid pan and a lane that ran just outside the track.
The first shoot we decided on was at the skid pan but, rather than use that area I decided to have the car drive around the perimeter road so I could get the beautiful countryside in the background
We then headed for the exit as I had noticed the avenue of trees on my way in and knew I'd want to shoot there. It works really well as a natural frame for the car.
Next we headed out of the gates so I could shoot with the chequered flag effect on the walls at the entrance to emphasise the location and the sports car heritage.
We finally had some sun so I made use of that fact as we took the Alpine for some more dynamic shots along the lane outside the entrance.
As soon as it came the sun was gone and the storm clouds built up. We had to work quickly before the rain came as it was looking like it was going to be fairly heavy and sustained. But the clouds added a nice dramatic feel .
Finally we headed to the pitlane for the final shoot and just got it done before the rain did come.
A really enjoyable shoot and a fabulous looking car. Definitely the sports car I would choose (should I ever get the chance!)
