Location Scouting

I went location scouting several days ago and took pictures of sites which may act as suitable locations. They have not been enhanced and may appear too dark depending on the gamma of the monitor you're using.

The prerequisites were simple:
  1. The location had to enable shots from the front and side that were free from traces of suburbia.
  2. They had to be easily accessible and close to the city. The old Rosny Golf Course locations are a mere 5 minute walk from Eastlands and the Rosny Bus Mall. Very convenient.

Location 1 - Old Rosny Golf Course

Location 2 - Old Rosny Golf Course

Front

Side

During my travels I discovered that the Rosny Golf Course used to be much larger before the double laned highway was built. This means on the other side of the highway is a vast expanse of vacant public land which once accomodated the golf course.



Location 3 - Kangaroo Bluff Battery

Front


Side

This location is housed within the Kangaroo Bluff Battery which is about 20-25 minutes walk from Eastlands but there's a bus that stops about 2 minutes away. Since it is a historic site limitations may be posed to the range of the shots which can be achieved because I don't want to include any of the historic architecture since its not relevant to the story.

I have taken many pictures of the battery and I shall display them in a future blog entry.
