Its back! been a little while since we had one of these running.

November 2014 COTM

Theme - Smartphones.

'The best camera is the one you have with you' Right?
Well as a majority of us own a smartphone or at least a phone with a camera, this months theme is all about getting out there and getting the best image you can with it. Exterior, interior or even a detailed close up, think creative and not just at a petrol station with an Instagram filter thrown on top or of it just sat on your driveway. Think of the background/scene, perhaps make the background the focal point with your e30 in the frame? Go crazy!
Try to avoid blurry pictures unless it's what you're going for as this could affect your prize should you win - see below.

The rules:
Image must be of an e30. It doesn't have to be of your own (as some may be tucked away over winter).
1 entry per person.
It must be your own image that you have taken and not plagiarised from the net.

Voting will start on 01/12/2014 so plenty of time to get an entry in.
A prize will be on offer, possibly a large quality print of the winning entry or of your choice, still to be decided and will be updated in due course.

Good Luck!

My friends have nicknamed her BrÃanhilda.

I guess for battling her way through a lot of shit. Literally :D
