For the next 2 weeks, this thread will be open for submissions for Photo Of The Month. A poll will then be created & voting will commence, with the winner being whichever photo has most votes by the end of the month.

The theme this month is "Summer". Apart from needing to involve an E30 in some way, you can interpret the theme however you like!

Photos preferably to be taken in the 2 weeks from today (we want new stuff, not photos that we've all seen before!).
Maximum 3 photos each.
Submissions by midnight on 16th July.

Good luck! :)

You're not gonna try & tell me that was taken yesterday & the date on the camera was wrong, are you Lizzie?! :P

& Felix - you can try harder too. I'll certainly be dissapointed if Suchy doesn't enter something new...

Nah Ziggy - I just came across the picture and thought it would be a laugh to show Iain and his car in their glory!! I took that picture at the Devils Bowl meet in June 2004. Long time ago now and yet it only feels like yesterday!!

Lizzie (& anyone else!) - feel free to put up any old photos you like (especially amusing ones!), but it'd make my life easier if you'd label them as such so they don't get put in the poll unfairly... :)

Dirty car in the pouring rain taken on a shoddy phone camera, but hey that tree looks summery!

Nothing says summer like blasting round dusty backroads in the sunshine!

Some good efforts so far, but Please can everyone highlight which are new photos & hence to be entered for the poll - I recognise far too many of them, & it'll take aaaages to search through the history of the zone to confirm my suspicions! :thumb:
