Competition 97

Theme chosen by GT HP Nut

THEME: In their words: "Fusion. Redefined.”

Feature two contrasting concepts or elements in your photo. They can be anything, from lighting and the lack thereof, the different colours of the car and the backdrop, to even cars from the Far East and Western countries, just to give you some inspiration in mind. It doesn’t have to be multi-car shots, and as long as you can name the two contrasting concepts, it’s okay. Be creative!"

• Editing: Levels, Curves, Colour Balance, Brightness/Contrast, Hue/Saturation, Shadows/Highlight adjustments, Cropping, or anything else capable in the development process or with filters and common special lenses (such as gradients) are allowed to be used in Photoshop or other image editing softwares. Other adjustments and effects (such as paintbrush tools) are not allowed to be used in your picture . You may also use Unsharp Mask.
  
  
• Photographs should ideally include some composition and effect - Base the photo on a studio shoot, or even use diorama/composition to create a realistic setting (you could position the model and camera in such a way in an outside setting so that it appears to be a 'real' car)

• No HDR shots.

• Shots must be taken between January 2015 and the present day.

• Work that has been shown previously (outside of the competition) is allowed.

• One entry per competition. You may change your entry as many times as you wish, however the entry you wish to submit should clearly be labelled with "Final Entry".

• Pictures posted should preferably be around 900px on their longest edge. You may link to a larger photograph in the post (I believe this is the size limit allowed by the Photography forum, however it likely hasn't been updated in some time)

• All scales of model are allowed unless specified.

​

Deadline for each bi-weekly competition will be 10:30pm EST on a Monday, poll will be up by 11:00 pm EST
Voting will be open for 5 days, and close on Saturday at 11:00 EST


This competition will close on June 18th, 2018.​

Final Entry​

I was going to do something else, but I wasn't feeling well for last while. This was a B-Roll shot that I considered using before. It's quite contrast-y in colour so it fits on that alone, but also in the differing philosophies of the car (front vs. rear engine, flat vs. V), and American vs. German engineering.
