As the contest rules that everyone ought to carefully read before posting indicate:
[*]Mark your FINAL ENTRY clearly, with red text.
[*]You may change your entry once. Do it clearly; edit out your previous entry, and
either post the new one in a new reply, or in place of the original.
Thus, your final entry must be marked as such. Changing your entry requires a different process.

[Nor]MclarenF1;5063932Stand up and spin 10 times, point. Repeat 19 times. Problem solved.
Looks like it's going to be a looong day for you
Mclaren, I'm thinking of using a blank wall, a blindfold and twenty darts.
dice, no doubt about it... I've been trying to keep up by pulling down photos as they get posted, ranking them in order of preference, and then putting in new ones as they come. But this is getting silly!

Since this is my first 2.0 entry, I'm a bit nervous. But I'm just asking to see if it's allowed. I've added the Black and White filter in GIMP. And adjusted the curve value. Some other coloring options were added though. And I'm sure that there's anything wrong with it.

Ahrweiler - Street - Lamborghini Miura P400 - Black and White by FishyJuice, on Flickr
This should hopefully be better, this is just black and white [at least to me].
But If there's anything, just say it in the thread.

Congrats on entering the 2.0 for the first time, Fishy. It does look like there's a bit of a dutone effect, or color cast - for the sake of simplicity, I'm asking for strictly B/W images. Go ahead and edit it down, removing the colored toning and resubmit. Best of luck!

Terronium-12: Sure - even a little bit bigger really helps me with comparisons. You can PM it to me, or you can edit your post and provide a link. Thanks!
SlipZtrEm: I'm glad you asked Dolp to elaborate - I thought it looked a little unusual. I believe his response (in post 139), as the image shows the sort of look that you get when you crank the fill light slider in Lightroom up really high, especially in the engine bay. A quick look at the EXIF does show that it was edited in LR3 - though I know that's not definitive in ruling out an HDR app.
Dolp: Thanks for responding to Slip's concerns. As far as I'm concerned, your image is fine... now, with 60+ images for me to narrow down to 20, it still might not make it, but at least it won't be for that reason!

Actually, it is not black and white. If you copy that image and open it in photoshop and desaturate it you can definitely tell that it's not b&w. Definitely some greens and browns in there.
It looks better desaturated btw. So Dolp, you might want to check that out before the end of this.

FINAL ENTRY
Seeing as it was my first attempt at B&W photography in GT5 when this competition started, I don't expect much. I'm happy with it.

That's what I thought. I can see it clearly, especially the greens!

You're right, 440 - I'd have noticed that when I imported them all into Lightroom for the sorting and final judging, but you've caught it early enough to give Dolp another chance.
There are probably others that have done the same thing, so let this post be a reminder to ALL that either Slip or myself will undoubtedly notice that during the final portion of judging and that photos that have any color cast at all will not make the final poll. Please make any edits and re-post before the polls close, if this applies to you.
