Further explanation of the theme, provided by CCShaft7:

"Thought I'd reflect on the global nature of our little community on the photomode forums by asking you to take a shot of any car, but make sure you deck your car out in the national colours/flag of YOUR country of origin or residence."


CARS: Any (no multi-car shots)
LOCATIONS: Any
PHOTOTRAVEL: Yes
UNIQUE RESTRICTIONS: So its clear to everyone (esp me :dunce: ) please title your entry with your representative Country.

Please, ensure you read and understand all requirements for this competition. Failure to follow
the rules may result in disqualification. If you have questions, send me a Private Message.
This Thread will answer many possible questions you may have.

  • It is recommended you host your image on ImageShack,
    Photobucket, or Flickr.
  • Not sure how to post a thumbnail or preview image?
    Read this sticky!
  • Please use a clickable-preview to full-size, not a separate text link for it;
    it makes poll creation much easier!

  • No post-GT5 editing, besides proportionally resize and rotate, is allowed.
    [*]One entry per user. It must be your own work, and never previously used in a comp.
    [*]Do not ask other users to choose your entry.
    [*]Absolutely no hybrid, hacked cars, or cars obtained through such means.
    [*]Mark your FINAL ENTRY clearly, with red text. On H2H weeks, which side, as well.
    [*]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.
    [*]When submitting, use either a thumbnail or a preview image, linked to the full-sizer.
    [*]Preview images can not exceed 500 pixels in either direction.
    [*]A preview image must be representative of the full-size image. Do not add effects to it.
    [*]Do not post "Honourable Mentions" or outtakes - just your Final Entry, that's all.
    [*]Winner gets to choose the following week's theme, as well as the Top 25. Every fourth
    week, the poll will be H2H style: entries must choose a "team", leading to two 12-picture,
    4-day polls. The winners from each faces off in a final 48 hour poll.
    [*]Winners cannot enter in their own theme!
    [*]The Host may ask for the original image and it must be submitted if so.
    It's recommended to save the original image (preferably in-game) until week's ends.
Failure to follow these rules will result in ignored entries and/or disqualification!

How can I do a Philippine flag with just one car?! :scared:
 
FINAL ENTRY


London_21 by Giulietta37, on Flickr
SCOTLAND

(I tried to get white diagonal reflections in the rear - nearly worked!!!:grumpy: More pleased with the location!!! It looks way better big!!! Please click!

Very interesting theme - a high level of creativity may be required - like a car with red and blue on it photographed in the snow - Justin there's a possibility. There's a lot of tricolore flags, could the 3rd colour be the background?)

yeah sorry for the confusion guys... I should have added in the description that other parts of the shot ie: scenery, background etc ( as Guilietta stated ) is fine to incorporate with the car. 👍

Also I have to say I'm not looking for exact 'flag' copies but just an overall feeling from the image that gives the impression of a nation via its colours. There is a lot more freedom to this theme than I probably gave over in the OP ........... happy shooting :)
 
I think I pulled it off well.

FINAL ENTRY
Watawat ng Pilipinas (The Flag of the Philippines)



Click for Lightbox!
 
So we can use national colours instead of the flag right? For instance; green & gold for Australia or in my case black and/or silver for New Zealand.

Correct 👍 ..... its like the Dutch "Orange"!! for example :) , I'd even accept Black and White for Germany and Blue for Italy, all acceptable 👍


Great (and clever) entries so far btw 👍
 
FINAL ENTRY



NEW ZEALAND

Our national colours/symbols tend to be minimalistic so I went that way. :)
