    MLK Day: Willow Springs Totally Deserted

    Did an impromptu photo shoot of a Client's car at Willow Springs today...through some strange, quirky twist of fate, there was NO ONE at the big track, The Streets. or anywhere else (save for a skeleton crew). Client had an absolute riot: got to do some slow tour laps around the big course, and we basically had the run of the place - 1st time we've ever seen Willow completely empty...

    Felt almost like we'd picked the lock on the gate and drove on in - it was little spooky.

    Cheers

    Magnus,
    Now THAT'S funny...when did you shoot that?

    Had I any idea what I was getting into in terms of the facility being this deserted...I would've done two things: a. round a few folks up and b. make 'em all show up at the crack of dawn for a photo shoot in the always-primo early morning light.
