Wow, some great pics didn't make the poll. Not fussed about mine as there were so many great shots, but where's Rambo's, that shot was awesome.

 

[Nato_777]

Amazing poll - being in it feels like a win in itself!
This is going to take some deliberation to choose a vote. 👍

 

[AidenNewman888]

Those in red sadly didn´t cut the cheese .. why ? well compared to the other entries they werent good enough from my point of view . Iam not saying they are not good .

If you have questions ,.. go ahead and ask . it may take some time until i read and asnwer them because i am only at nights infront of my computer .

cheers

 

[Sinfour]

Wow, this feel like a win already just to make it into this poll! Thanks nanabu!

 

[driftinziggy]

Great poll! Not interested in feedback.. Pretty obvious why my shot isn't there.. The entries were amazing 👍

 

[Pato Milan]

Beautiful poll! Wasn't easy to vote. Pity I didn't even get into Nanabu's list but I can't complain, there were so many great entries!

 

[nanabu]

the list contains only those who would have made it 100% because they are beautiful in preview and fullsize , but unfortunately only 15 are allowed :/ in some pictures you could see the damaged pixels , sadly this is a no go for me although they are awesome in preview .

don´t be mad don´t be sad if you didn´t make it

 

[KING OF SKULLS]

You could easily run a exhibition with all 15 entries in the poll and it would be sold out every single day!

I'm sorry guys, i can't vote. I do not want to leave anyone out. For me everyone in the poll (and in the whole competition) is a winner!!!

 

[jus1029]

I bet my entry was too bright.

Voted for Jacob's Celica shot!

 

[rambo793]

So I guess mine probably had damaged pixels eh? Though i fail to understand how my entry didn't make it to your 'list" either.
YOu're the boss, no problem , 👍

 

[zambuca]

I would like to use my card of multiple votes please....

 

[zambuca]

rambo...I know the feeling (believe me) but this week had an incredible line-up...sometimes it's even harder being the judge than the entrant...

 

[rambo793]

Yea bud, so have I. It's alright, just sharing my thoughts out loud.

FINAL ENTRY



​

It is way too much saturated on the first look and even now i don´t like it much. Iam sorry mate , ... iam here since Dec 23 2010 , guess how many times my entries got rejected and i thought it is an amazing picture .

I hope you are not mad at me

cheers

 

[KING OF SKULLS]

Can i have a feedback, too nanabu.........please (with sugar on top).

 

[Beeblebrox237]

I honestly cannot vote. All of these entries are fantastic. I whittled it down to my favourite four, but it's impossible to pick one. Great job, everyone

 

[jus1029]

I need confirmation, nanabu!

I bet my entry was too bright.

 

[nanabu]

I need confirmation, nanabu!

I have no time to make a new shot, so old shot!

Correct dunno why you added soo much white in it with a blue car , yes the bokeh effect is very nice but it would have been much nicer if it had many colours , like Nato´s picture . Iam not saying it is bad , just saying it could have been much better since i know you are a great photographer and awesome editor

Can i have a feedback, too nanabu.........please (with sugar on top).

Your image is very very nice but iam missing the awesome bokeh effect at the end of the car , it´s just black after the head lights but in my original message to Kyle aka SlipZtrEm i mentioned if some one drops out or gets disqualified your image should replace it .

Wow. It's the first time my prediction is correct.
Thanks, Sural, for your CC and that last bit!

First of all, thanks a lot for the honest feedback. 👍 It helps a lot to (maybe) do it better next time. I think i misinterpreted the theme wanted to created a different style of pic and missed the spot.

But i'm not sad about it. I still like the pic and knowing it was in your shortlist is a little win for me.

Thanks again for taking the time to reply.

It's a great artistic photograph and i would have it hanging on my wall.

No idea why it's got so few votes, Nice one Jamie, I think it's great.​
