All y'all vote on this pics every month? :shock:

I guess I never come over this side of the room to see what goes on in here.

My very first POTM Vote cast - for irrational_i, Ferrari 365 P2, Porsche 917K, Lola T70, Alfa T33

 

[gucom]

dingo's pic pretty easily...not only a beautiful car, but the picture's just AMAZING... Zonda F and birdcage were high on my list too...

 

[adamwich]

My vote goes to Smylait!

 

[nthfinity]

i voted for dani's seat picture...

im not a big fan of the car, per say... but wow, that picutre! good work dani! for some reason; i think of the biginning to 'the hunt for red october' with john williams directing a choir to sing that first song in the movie :lol: mabey the picture instills some fear :lol:

 

[komotar]

I love the zonda pic very much, but I'll go with dingo's 355 on this one

One of his best pics 8)

 

[04RCSTI]

ahh, boo I didnt make the list. F430 gets my vote. Its one of my favorite cars ever...

 

[ZfrkS62]

I like Dani's Seat Ibiza for some reason. it looks like it has the little dog complex where it tries to be big and bad, but it's bark is really worse than it's bite :mrgreen:

 

[bmagni]

dani you're vote is mine... nice pic

 

[TT]

Well well, again very hard.
I don't have time to go indepth for every picture, but I'll try at least for the ones that came close to getting my vote, because I like to

dani's pics placed in first position in the post is like a prediction! Before scrolling down (yes, I already forgot most of the contenders since I update the list during the month), I wonder how another picture can get my vote
karcs picture IMO is very pure with a classic sportcar leaving on a deserted road. Life is beautifull
thanks to dingo we are used to Perth's skyline. It's always beautifull and the colors so bright and balanced!
stmoritzer's might have those three persons in the back, which is usually kind of a bad thing of course, but hell, it's an SLR on snow, with a menacing sky, big mountains... very lovely!
MIHALS' pic was probably shoot early morning or late evening.. usually the best moments to have stunning light and colors
Smylait's pic would have been perfect without ppl around, but I fear impossible in Paris
salegosse got a Zonda F, stunning and the picture quality is mindblowing, but the RX beside it really turn me off, especially since we saw the low res previews of his other pics which are even better
so far it seems pretty obviously I am about to vote for dani's Ibiza, but here comes Cyril's 430 and man.. italian stallion, italian village with vintage barber shop.. all the windows shut closed to protect the glasses from the boomy exhaust... only detail that lamp which is also a but cut out of the frame at the top not enough to ruin the result though

in the end it's between an Ibiza and a 430... honestly I like them both, and a lot. I give my vote to dani to underline the fact we are voting for the picture composition/quality rather than the car so this way I hope to make ppl understand they don't need to see 100 exotics a day to take part in the contest!

Well done dani, hyper close second Cyril and third place for all the others

 

[MIHALS]

nope TT, you're wrong rr: time the pic was taken: 14:19:38 :lol: it was cold sunny day and I used polarizer aswell, so maybe thats's why :wink:

but to the other pics... hmmm, no, not now... too many beautiful pics to decide :? our competition is getting harder and harder . I have to take some time - few days to decide for such beautiful pics...

 

[yg60m]

WOW :shock: very hard to choose this month, usually I hesitate between 2 or 3 pics but here ... I would take almost all of them !
I will vote for TT anyway as I like the angle and purity of the pic :wink:

 

[Pehtren]

Dani rocks, all the pics are just amazing, i really didnt know which to choose but i had to choose one, so danis is the pic which you notice right away...

All of you made an great effort

 

[dropot2]

I'm sure that dani knew my vote before I post this message
My vote is for dani...it's an outstanding pic and I can't resist the temptation of seeing the Catalan flag in the main page :mrgreen:

 

[r2r]

This months selection not as great as previous months, but still good.

The only one that really catches my eye is the Smylait, Maserati Birdcage, so my vote goes for the Birdcage

 

[dingo]

My vote goes for komotar (not just because he voted for me), but I just love that background which is so typically Italian (at least in my eyes). The car is posing correctly too with the front wheels turned. :good:

Some other very nice pics too, but a couple lost out due to what is in the background (people) - which obviously can't always be helped but does "hurt" the pic a little.

 

[TNT]

all great pics but dodo just made my mouth drop. that is a near perfect picture with a near perfect car in it. AWESOME SHOT!!!!!!! :good:

 

[DeMoN]

that black enzo is too nice.

 

[TT]

I'd like also to thank all the members that take the time to actually post a couple of words to explain their vote. It makes for some interesting read and will help all of us improving our pictures I hope :good:

 

[MIHALS]

dani - ibiza - I can imagine this picture as a wallpaper, or a poster, but there's some better ones in this competition - sorry
karcs - gulwing - too bad the car is overexposed, deifferent angle would suite more :bah:
TT - Coxster - if I liked this car, I would put this pic straight to my desktop - car in the right, icons on the left :lol: anyway - briliant picture with no needed reflections - just stunning!!! the best qualitty pic here!!!
dingo - 355 - beautiful car (most beautiful ferrari) with stunning background. but when taking pics, the watter should ALWAYS be flat, it shouldn't be running out of picture and that ruins my point of view on this pic a lot - sorry
eurocopter - another Coxster - here is too much reflections, I hate car with reg. plate, so some erasing wouldn't hurt :wink: and the "swing" is too much!
raphaelws - well, dealership...
moritzer - SLR - :drool: no words needed... oh actually yes. HEEEY you in the back! get off! :bah:
irrational_i - maybe rare sight, but picture didn't smash me into my eyes enough...
sentra - GT - rare to see such car on the green, but the pic was taken too close to the car :?
mihals - Stingray - no comment... I didn't expect anything this month. the car is rare as hell here, but it's still just a street sight - thanks TT for putting me in the list anyway! (makes me happy to be here )
smylait - birdcage - as dani said - the flash is too close to your camera, so it takes more attention, than the car... still super-rare picture - congrats!
hamlet - speedster - that weather sucks :x - such a shame...
wutt - enzos - wow, great sight, I would want to be there at the moment! but as a picture... too many ppl :bah:
dutch - supra - car is too dark, maybe a shot from the other side of the road would be better...
salegosse - Mighty Zonda F - :drool: as mantioned, that Lex next to it ruins the picture totally and the swing is too much aswell
sportlover - fiero - different angle would be much better... and the grey sky doesn't fit any picture :bah:
dodo - modena - such a valentine's picture :lol: beautiful, simple, stunning
speedracer - exige - just a road sight... could be nice picture when stationary...
komotar - f430 - I so bloody envy you!!! yes, your picture deserves to be on the frontpage :wink:
nthfinity - alfa - overexposed, step or two to the left could do te picture looking better :wink:

alright, that's just my opinion, my vote and if somebody has something against my opinion, it's his problem rr: I'm trying to look at the pics more from the photographers side
