I am awaiting the obligatory holiday touring snap of a photo of the wing mirror with the car in view...
Does it have to be the car you are in that is in the photo yeah?
If I can find it I have a shot in mind from my road trip with my dad to Denmark.

 

[Boffin]

I'm going to enter this one. Sorry about running late with my entry.

 

[Aldo]

I think you'll be the only one!
My question above still stands.

 

[NISM0_SKYLINE]

I'll enter, I just have no idea what to put.

My question above still stands.

I held of answering because I has hoping MatskiMonk would answer for me, as I'm not entirely sure if I can properly. I am thinking it might be a theme of... not entirely sure. Haha.

I'll leave this until next week probably.

This is my first entry into one of the photo competitions and was taken for the view and the infamous road but as it was from inside my brothers Peugeot 106, which can just be seen at the bottom of the image, fits the remit. The Google Street View car has also been to the same spot on a slightly sunnier day! (http://maps.google.co.uk/?ie=UTF8&t...95&ll=54.402696,-3.156252&spn=0,0.076818&z=14)

I think the theme is confusing, do you mean interior shots? Or something like that? Or images taken inside the car looking into the mirrors of other cars? It's really not that clear what you mean...and I think that's why there has been a lack of entries.

Stuff taken from inside the car which might be of something else but has to contain a part of the car from which the shot is taken. Like this:

Mojave Desert, California, USA
20th November 2009
Kodak Z740​

To save confusion, I have a couple more examples here and here, both taken the same day but with different parts of the car in the shot.

 

[Neal]

Also so just so we can be clear on what's classed as a holiday snap but still falls within the theme here is a more recent photo of a donkey!

 

[Aldo]

Well, here goes nothing!
Just found a pic from my holida to Denmark. Pictured is what I believe to be a Masarati Quattroporte (please feel free to correct me) in the mirror of my dad's Saab 93 Aero convertable.

No editing has been done.

 

[Speedster502]

Does this count? It's not of anything specifically, but it was taken from inside a car, you can even see the interior on the right hand side of the shot.

Technically it doesn't go against the theme, but if it does, I have another - ah heck I'll whip it up and replace this one...

 

[LongbowX]

Mm, I thought I would mention that I am going to close this later today. See if there is anyone else who wants to sneak in.

 

[hairyboid4]

I'm a noob to the photo comps but here's my pic taken from a Mitsubishi Endeavor on the day that I bought my first car.

[LongbowX]

Mm. I meant to close this yesterday, but funny enough I hit my head going down the stairs - not too bad mind you - but enough I didn't feel well and so I left it until today. Still am not 100%, but well enough to close this up. So I will in a very short time.

Yes it has. And we've missed you. I think it's against the theme, perhaps. It doesn't say that the photo has to be something outside the car explicitly, but it does imply it though due to the title.

Actually, I'll give you a chance to read this. Tomorrow it is then.

That being said:

Final Entry



McQueen has it in for me.

 

[Boffin]

Righto - I'm on that.

EDIT - hmmm maybe not - the other shot I had in mind has me in the car, yet the camera out of it, so I guess thats against the rules too. :/

 

[LongbowX]

Hmm. That's too bad. Well then...are you out then? Can I close this up?

 

[Boffin]

Yes. Thanks for waiting though. 👍

 

[LongbowX]

Yes. Thanks for waiting though. 👍

You're welcome.



And: CLOSED.
