Default PHOTO OF THE MONTH MAY SUBMISSIONS

Before showing the pics, I'd like to remember you we changed the way to decide the winner since some months. 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

5 pt - bloeb - stunning sky!
3 pt - MartijnGizmo - contrast, light, colors, great postcard!
2 pt - MUS911 - so much white, and so different than the usual Dubai sightings
1 pt - MidEngine4Life - lovely contrast between the red of the car and the fog. Too bad for the lack of polarizer and the wheels turned the wrong way.

5 pts - bloeb, Opel Speedster VXR - Probably one of the BEST pictures I have ever seen. Amazing!!!

3 pts - Smylait, Ford GT - Love that livery. Perfect shot, super focused.

2 pts - MS911, Porsche 911 Turbo - Very nice picture overall. Great composition and colors matches perfect with the apartments.

1 pt - MidEngine4Life, Chevrolet Corvette C5 - One of the most perfect spots for photoshoots. Too bad it was foggy and you can't see GG Bridge that well.

5 pts: P_Zero_Rosso, 997 Turbo ( stunning picture, the black car looks just amazing in this light!!)
3 pts: stmoritzer, Mercedes-Benz CLK DTM AMG cabrio (you said the light was crap that night, but I think it worked great on all your pictures, definitely this one! Great shot!)
2 pts: Smylait, Ford GT (nice shot, especially in this colour it's just a racing car on the road IMO)
1 pt: TT, Ferrari Daytona Gr 4 (nice car, the position of the car in the picture is really good!)


@TT: I think the wheels of the Corvette are positioned really good, the car seems to be really overlooking the sea - which is pretty cool I think

5pts: P_Zero_Rosso, just wow
3pts: MidEngine4Life, great pic, nice-looking car (probably better than C6), great background
2pts: stmoritzer, nice colour work
1pt: MIHALS, classy simple pic, seems to give the idea of "when roads were still uncongested so you could properly enjoy driving"

Right, but in a general way, when you take a 3/4 pic, you should see the rim, not the rubber

I can't recall exactly what you posted during the past month, but I seems indeed weird no pic struck my eye

I always said you guys better inform me at the end of the month if you posted a pic you judge worthy because, especially now that I am really buried at work, I can miss the good ones every now and then
