Don´t vote in your own shot, or you will be disqualified
 
Had to vote for TW, the colours are like nothing I've seen before and they match the headlights perfectly, with the black car forming a nice constrast inbetween. The composition is simple but is very effective at keeping your eye where it needs to be.

No offence meant to Swiss here (because I'm going to be brutal) but I really don't see what's so special about his shot. The car and background colour are completely out of harmony, the composition is fairly plain and there is simply too much going on for your eye to be drawn to any one area. The purple sky, the multicoloured background, the green car, it's all over the place to me. Obviously I'm in the minority in thinking this so it's probably just me but I genuinely don't like it at all.
 
You are not totally alone. While I don’t totally dislike it, I even think it is a pretty cool shot, but nothing special to get so many votes. The same with your shot (Moglet), to me. It is cool, but I am not seeing what is so spectacular about it. I could see it very well applied in a abstract form of competition, but even though, I guess it is just not my type of photos…No offence meant.

NTX has a far superior shot and it has no votes at all, and not to speak of TW entry, that is a masterpiece.

Mine was just a random shot I took, I spent about an hour looking through replays etc. but couldn't get a good shot. Plus I kept falling asleep :lol:
 
Thing is, this was about 2 in the afternoon! It's because I have to get up at 5am every morning for work and rarely get enough sleep, so my GT4 photo sessions normally turn into an afternoon nap :)

:(...none taken mog! I loved the chaos of it. That's just me. It's not often I disappoint you :lol: just kiddin. I took that shot explicitly to do that blur. Probably why you think it lacks. I knew I wanted to do a partial zoom blur there, I just love it so much. I'm glad you were completely and honestly brutal about it.
MY vote went to Nuno, as I said in the other thread. Friggin cool picture...
 
Congrats Swiss, you won 👍

Well done too Mog and TW, impressive shots!!
