PHOTO OF THE MONTH MARCH SUBMISSIONS

[TT]

Before showing the pics, I'd like to remember you we changed the way to decide the winner since some months (http://www.motorworld.net/forum/showthread.php?p=641603#641603). Just testing if it will work out, but I am sure it will, and it's a better solution, even if some of the laziest ones will stop voting because it will take some more time.

Here is what to do:

You have to select your fav FOUR pics and assign points. The point system is as follows:

fav pic: 5 pts
second pic: 3 pts
third: 2 pts
fourth: 1 pt

Please, your fav pic on top, 4th one at the bottom of the short list.

Also, if you want, please, explain your choices :)

And may the best win :)

Everyone had awesome pics, very hard to pick for the best shots :good:

[jorge]

Very, very hard to choose between these :|

5pts - Wutputt, Porsche 997 Turbo
3pts - ZondaC12, Gemballa 997 GTR650 Avalanche
2pts - TT, Pagani Zonda F
1pt - stmoritzer, Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren 722

I also liked a lot the picture of the Seat Leon FR from komotar. The picture is great, but maybe the fact that i don`t like at all the design of the car convince me not to put it in the top 4.

awsome work guys!
Thanks for: dani_d_mas, pterps, stmoritzer, eurocopter, Smylait, skituner, Wutputt, P_Zero_Rosso, HarryCASI
really nice job. :)

[stmoritzer]

5pt skituner, Subaru Impreza WRX STI , nice panning shot, the high contrast value for the blue color of the WRX fits perfectly IMO

3pt komotar, Seat Leon FR - like the simple background, the car looks great like this

2pt Wutputt, Porsche 997 Turbo , nice wintershot with lots of grey-black-colors

1pt TT, Pagani Zonda F , for me the ZOndaF doesn't fit "on gras" somehow, that's why no better position , the location, trees and weather behind give a good set-up

was hard to choose - runner ups are Smylait and ZondaC12 , the Roadster picture is too "wild" also with the open doors/hood/ ... the front of the Gemballa looks to normal IMO and the left side of the pictue is irritting with all teh different bars and rails :bah:

very good photography in general :good:

[Stoopie]

Difficult choices this month!

5 pts komotar, Seat Leon FR (the lights, especially the rear lights, it's just awesome! :D)

[HeilSvenska]

Man this is hard. So many top notch pics.

1. ZondaC12, Gemballa 997 GTR650 Avalanche. Why? Because it has such a lovely lighting.

2. pterps, Ferrari 360 Spider. Why? Because that's how I envision my dream garage.

3. stmoritzer, Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren 722. Why? It has that great ominous lighting effect there. Fantastic.

4. komotar, Seat Leon FR. Why? Also very nice lighting.

Good job, guys.

^?

do you want to vote twice :mrgreen:

[HeilSvenska]

Yeah, hoping that my vote will be counted twice. :P

Sorry, I forgot that there was no edit button on this "thread".

[pzgren]

5 - ZondaC12 - i really like the lighting in this picture, has an awesome effect
3 - stmoritzer - awesome car in a great picture, looks like a sleeping beast, hard decision between 5 and 3 points...
2 - wuttput - was also close between you and skituner, skituners pic has the better contrast because of the colors but somehow i preferd yours
1 - skituner - nice panning shot

[gangajas]

5 pts-ZondaC12, Gemballa 997 GTR650 Avalanche
3 pts-Smylait, Lamborghini Murcielago Roadster
2 pts-Wutputt, Porsche 997 Turbo
1 pt-eurocopter, Alfa Romeo Brera

[komotar]

5 pts - smylait
3 pts - zondaC12
2 pts - stmoritzer
1 pt - TT

ok here goes.

I really took my time...hehe

I gave 5 pts to smylait, because the light is just
right, the car looks so wild with everything open and then some. The
composition is nice and the colour of the car is freakin' rare ...

I gave 3 pts to ZondaC12 because all the interesting colours, the very good
composition and because it's a night shot, and I
love those ...it's only a shame, because I think you had 2 or 4 better pics than
that, maybe more, well, maybe not better, but they would showcase the cars and
the surroundings much better.

I gave 2 pts to stmoritzer because I think the mood is perfect, the background is
dull, bit because there is nothing to destract the watcher ftom the car, it
fit's in nicely. The car looks like a real menace, the angle is just right. By
taking dead front or rear shots you can easily go too low or to high and this one
is just right. If the pic was any brighter it would suck, but like this I love
it...

I gave 1 pt to TT because of the nice contrast. We've been talking around the
office about cars and locations and we've come up with the conclusion, that
we'll try to stay away from the grass, except with ofroaders and such ...The
zonda is a mighty, mighty car and I think it's one of the all time great's
herritage or no herritage, and I know TT didn't have much time on his hands, so
the result is cool.

other pics? well, I think pterps pic is nice, but the composition
is a bit off, the car is in the middle of the pic, it's a shame, because the light
is good, the car looks so hot...

I think it's a shame for the renault 5, because I think the world of that
car, and I think that dani had two or maybe three pics that showed off the car
much, much better, where the light was right, the composition clicked. It would get my vote probably, but in this pic, everything is too dark, and the background is so so.

skituner's pic is a very good contrast, and it just lost one point...but I like it because the car is moving and we don't have many of that here


it just jumped into my head, that dingo didn't have a pic in this contest?!? ok, I'm sure he'll kick ass with the turbo pics next month ...

It's a shame for the baad light in HarryCASI's pic, almost perfect composition and
a cool car.

eurocpoter's pic is cool, but I hate stickers, lol

P_zeto_rosso, good pic, but it's a general rule, that the car should always be pointed into the pic, not the other way around (there are excpetions...), but
that's the only thing that bothered me...

MUS911, AWESOME CAR, but, not a very special background, but that car
pic still keeps finding it's place on my desktop, llo, awesome car and what a sighting :shock:

oh, wutputs' pic is great, nice mood, kinda dark and it's a nice pic, a contender
for sure

yo_spc's lambo, it's a bit dull, no contrast with the background and something just doesn't feel right, still an awesome car tho 8)

[eurocopter]

Uff ... very hard this Month

5 Points: ZondaC12: Unbeliveble Picture, the Colours in the Background are so nice.

3 Points: skituner: Nice Dynamic Shot ... I love it

2 Points: TT : Uff very exotic Car ... lucky guy :wink:

1 Point; P_Zero_Rosso : Silver is not the best color for the New TT , but the Background is nice :P

To All Other: Great Works :lol:

5pt stmoritzer, Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren 722 - This picture shows the muscle of the merc when you look at it. Curves like perfectly crafted art. Perfect definition and the light gives it that, gothic look germany is known for.

3pt pterps, Ferrari 360 Spider - This would of been first IF it was a hardtop and better color.

2pt ZondaC12, Gemballa 997 GTR650 Avalanche- the back ground gives the white car a nice definition.
