Winner: Week 62 - Theme chosen by SPhilli911

THEME: Their words: "Abstract.

Take an abstract photo of a car. I want to see some shots that make me wonder what the car is. For example: a close-up shot of some air vents on the body of a classic Ferrari, or the curved, swooping lines of a Porsche 911."

Great shots everybody, I feel it will be a very strong week. Now we just need Longbow to enter

Just for the hell of it, here is a shot I wanted to enter, but it is over 'shopped and the original had some problems

This is a very strong week, the shots so far have been incredible. I will have nothing remarkable, though. I'm all photo-ed out.

And I think yours is pretty damn good too. ^^ Though it's too bad it isn't eligible....

Oh Hellz yeahhhh. My kinda theme 👍.

Most of these shots are pretty strong contenders, so it will be an interesting poll to say the least.

Guess.
