Competition Of The Month.

Rain

It's competition time again and this month we would like you to show off those photographic skills

The brief:
Pictures of your pride and Joy in wet and soggy situations. If your E30 doesnt get out in the rain, be creative!

The rules:
It must be your own art work and not plagiarised from the net. There will be plenty of time to get your art work complete and voting will take place via a poll once everyone has submitted their designs.

No asking on other forums for people to vote either!

The prize:
Bear with us at the moment on this!

The process:

The competition starts on the 1st of each month

Entries close on the 23rd of each month

Voting will start on either the 23rd or the 24th

Votes close on the 30th of each month and the winner will be annouced

Not rained for a few days here...might get the hose pipe out and a sprinkler, make it look like it is raining...

That could be done, provided everyone gets on and likes the page

I need to send sunny a sticker actually, providing he wants one ( i know its not everyones cut of tea but....free stickers! )

Mine is garaged for the winter, but if you are going to accept snaps of it in the garage, then the following is my crappy offering....

perhaps not the smartest thing to do in weather your wipers can't clear on the fastest setting

I'm not very good with photography but I like this pic of mine I took on a very wet trackday between sessions, hence why I made it my avatar

Over the next few weeks, it will become very official

More info will follow at some point too, but well spotted

I thought the pics were meant to be taken in the month for the theme, rather than dragging up old pics?

Ideally, people enter new pictures, but some people already have a few on their computer that fits the bill.

I wouldnt worry too much about it though

You'll just have to set the bar high for those entering old pictures
