Are more like a snap shot in my book.

Don't stress it, mate. You know this is all subjective.

EDIT: Overall, I think the poll looks great. 👍
And yeah, my entry is missing as well.

 

[bmxmitch]

Not a single firework or lit tree in the poll..

 

[boozybloke]

Some serious contenders this week, quite a lot of them actually.. I can see this one being a close run thing. Although I see Moglet is off to a flying start as usual *tips hat*

[ThaSyn]

Jippie, I've made the polls again.

I love the first picture

 

[ZEROX]

Made it with my Enzo.Woot!

 

[Captain Slovv]

Yea, I was thinking my lonely McLaren would make it as well, but it's not the end. I guess I'll try to get into this weeks Italian poll.

 

[zambuca]

Great shot this week Gtuned 👍 It has that extra "something". I like when a photo has some kind of story or adds a twist to the theme.

Should I consider this, swaying the poll?

 

[ChaosStar79]

only for people who remember which one was his, or feel like going to the effort of checking the other thread..

 

[roninhyde]

Waht kind of car does the 2nd to last one belong to?

It's a 370Z.

 

[Matty]

Waht kind of car does the 2nd to last one belong to?

Am... same car as #9 so it's definatly a Nissan, I think the model is a 350 Fairlady Z? or something like that...

Also can't believe mine didn't make it... Probably because it was too dark..?

EDIT sorry roninhyde didn't see your post when I posted!

 

[roninhyde]

^It's cool. It's not even my photo, but I just know my cars (and the photog said that's what it was in the entry thread ).

As it's my photo, I'm happy to confirm roninhyde is correct: it's the 2008 Nissan Fairlady 370Z (Z34). I hope that's not considered 'lobbying'!

 

[tupacrulez]

not surprising I didn't make it. I didn't enter my original shot since I didn't wanna rock a 1:1 shot in this PMC week. should have though, it was a rocking shot. swapped out for a much more inferior one.

 

[David97]

Amazed I made the poll. It's only my 2nd week of this

 

[sprplay]

Thanks for getting me into the poll in my 3rd attempt

There were so many amazing pics, so good luck to all of you

Final Entry


Lambo Gallardo pack heading for the poll


Making of:
My idea was to create a picture of a close pack of cars which are just "arriving".

The image was taken in the one maker practise mode at SS5 at the exit of the second tunnel. It took me several attempts to get the AI into a close field instead of going in one chain.

Camera filter was set to "half coloured" to contrast the cars from the street and EV was raised to make the steet markings more visible. The strong zoom was used to strengthen the impressinon of "close together".

I hope you like it

Wow, I made it to the poll on my first entry.

Many great entries this week, hard competition.

 

[honkydonky]

Pretty disappointing selection for the polls

How does a close up of a light cluster fit the theme which was about the track!!

 

[lilmann73]

Man, I definitely thought my shot would have made it.

 

[sems4arsenal]

didn't make it but astonishing That Jamie didn't make it I was actually going to vote for him

Anyway Zerox's Entry is Spectacular so is Mog's , BoozyBloke's ans sixtoes

 

[Moglet]

I voted for the image of the 2 cars facing each other. It's completely unique and well shot, but still fits the theme.

Who, Me ? That's just me having faith in my entry for once.
