Amtyville Horror house son what are you waiting for?!! Oo.

I know the island has lighthouses.
 
I would head to anyone of the beaches or out to the east end. If your out east you have everything from rocky terrain, vineyards, to beaches to windmills. If your looking for someplace close, wherever you are you couldn't be more than 20 minutes from the sound, bay or ocean.

My profile pic was taken at Captree State Park on the Fire Island Inlet where I love to go to take pics. It may still be closed as it was an equipment staging area for repairs from Hurricane Sandy for the barrier islands but should be open soon with the weather getting better.

Good luck!!
 
I live in Lindenhurst and go to captree all the time. I was hoping for some place different that maybe I didn't know about that someone else does. but thanks for your suggestions
 
A nice, plain, nondescript background that doesn't steal attention form the cars would be nice.
 
do what I do and just get in your car and take a drive. find some spots. see where the light is and where you want it to be to figure out the best time to shoot there. should be tons of spots to shoot in new york.
 
I hear ya, I find myself either at Captree or now Oak Beach quite often and a change of scenery would be nice. I would think like 12 said, take a ride, I would head to North Shore, maybe out near Port Jeff or east where you would have a much rockier shoreline and different feel then that south shore. That or up around Bayville and Oyster Bay.
 
Parking garage roofs are popular, just make sure you have permission to shoot there (or any location you don't own, for that matter).
 
thanks. i will drive around and try and find some spots next week when i have off from school
 
dont forget to take your camera, get a photo of each location that you can put into a folder and start building up shots of locations you can use.
