I'm very very surprised to see aidan's entry missing from this, it's an absolute belter!

Not surprised that mine didn't make it, it was quite different.

Another week, another poll not made

Lots of good variety this week, good to see given the theme seemed fairly limited.

 

[CCShaft7]

gonna take some time to decide where my vote will end up going.... must be around 4-5 serious contenders imo

 

[ghostrider135]

[zorenstein]

I thought i had a good change too, but i guess not maybe next time

 

[Rossticles]

I'm surprised the guy that couldn't read the rules made it.

The twin SLs, old and new, get my vote.

I thought that too lol.

Yes old vs new is brilliant and well done.

Thanks for the votes on Germany's Colors. I am really surprised to have any votes this week.

 

[Benmastaw00t]

I love the mood, lighting and composition of the 1:1 Z4 photo. Brilliant work.

 

[ivoyared]

I see no love for DTM on this poll.

Oh, I see it, voting now

 

[ZEROX]

Chrome line R8 gets my vote....
I doubt my r8 LMS will get more than 3 vote.

 

[Captain Slovv]

I'm feeling the DTM photo.

 

[tonilleshusband]

I love the mood, lighting and composition of the 1:1 Z4 photo. Brilliant work.

Thanks w00t, I must have taken 100 shots and setups to get that one.

 

[DigitalBaka]

Wow, so much goodness to choose from...and then mine. Surprised I got in on my first try at this but pleased.

I'm having a hard time picking from the classics and the modern. That and I keep seeing my old Corrado when I look at that pic of the Quattro. loved that car...

 

[TheDrummingKING]

Wait so why do some people no make it into the poll?

 

[Fezz_ST]

Quite surprised MINE didn't make the poll, judges taste I guess, any thoughts on why it didn't make it?

 

[dennisp83]

I'm sorry to say but there were that many good entries, when it came to judging I could have picked 50 winners but I was only allowed to pass 30.
Your photo was very good, so was that from aidan, unfortunately I had to make a decision and I feel horrible to let down some good entries!!
Sorry to all who didn't made it to the poll.

Let's put it that way: there were a few bad entries, some good entries, and then there were splendid entries. the bad news is, only 30 of those splendid entries had to advance.

Hope y'all will not be mad at me now...

Cheers!

 

[Fezz_ST]

I'm not complaining, just wanted to hear what you thought made it not worthy of the poll

 

[NTwo]

I think I'll have to finally bite the bullet and ask for some constructive criticism.

On this.

 

[dennisp83]

Again guys, there is nothing wrong with your entries, the shots are very good! What more can I say?
Maybe we could create a second poll for all the entries that nearly made the poll...?

You guys make me feel guilty now

 

[ZEROX]

Now that i notice it...
Somewhat the image quality deteriorate.
Or is it just me?

 

[TryingToDrift]

yey, i'm in the poll

but euhm..how does everyone get his image so big?
i can only choose from thumpnail..

 

[Moglet]

I don't think anyone is complaining about the selection, except for the rule breaker. It's just confusing that an image with near perfect composition and lighting failed to make it and yet a basic snapshot that was against the rules did!

But the judge's decision is final and that's that. Good luck to everyone who got through.

 

[rpanico14]

My first photo to make it through to a poll (blue Z4M w/whiterims)

I've voted for the white R8 as I love the clarity and lighting 👍

 

[tonilleshusband]

Cheer up Dennis. You won the comp - you obviously know what a good photo looks like. Do your thing, don't worry about everyone else and let the whiners soak in their own self pity.

 

[dennisp83]

just remember this

 

[Dance Commander]

An unusually good showing for me in this one this week, glad I even made it as the quality was superb Cheers to the guys who've voted on mine so far!
