I just read that Loop Road (never been there either) is gravel and sometimes in really bad condition. Sounds like it's good for those with SUVs or Pick-em-up trucks, but somehow, I don't think my Toyota Corolla would be very happy.

I think I may head over to Hugh Taylor Birch one day this week, and scope it out. It sounds interesting in the book I bought, and I'm thinking with the trails, and the beach, there should be plenty to shoot.

While the Everglades offers some great shooting opportunities, if we want our friends from up north of us to join in, I think it may be just a little further than they want to travel. Heck, it's further than I want to travel. Okay...... so I'm a very lazy photographer.

I agree, we would have to get a group of people. Would be a nice outing

is that off I-75 and Griffin road? 305, 954 and 561 should get together for a shoot.

Yes this is close to I-75 and Griffin Rd off Orange Drive.

The park was recently expanded and now it is used often for commercial photo shoots, horse back riding, cycling, jogging up the old landfill or along the designated exercise trail plus you can fly your model airplane or parasail off the top of the elevated area.

I am trying to get one or two local models to do a photo shoot along the exercise trail, using one or more of the exercise stations.
