Car Of The Month - Sponsored by Pukar Designs http://www.pukardesigns.com

E30s in the wet.

This month we would like you to get those E30s wet :wink: As the sun has rapidly disappeared and the rain has started you shouldn't have a problem taking a quick photo but remember not too long or your E30 will rust away !

The brief:

The photo can be anything you like as long as it has an E30/s in it and wet, good luck.

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.

1 entry per member.

No asking on other forums for people to vote either!


The process:

The competition starts on the 1st of each month,

Entries close on the 23/8/15
Voting will start on the 24/8/15
Votes close on the 31/8/15


Prize...

This months prize is a set of number plates donated by this months sponsor Pukar Designs.

Photo for reference only -

Steve, please don't use white font, you can't see it when using the Liteside Theme.

Out of interest are these photo competitions or car competitions? It seems to be the lines are blurred between whether it's entering an artistic picture and entering a picture of a nicely kept, well spec'd well loved car? We all love to see both of course but the last couple seem to have been ok pictures of very nice cars but 'subjects' (i.e. phone pictures, E30's in the wet) are to do with photography?

I would say it's a bit of both, but anything goes really. We come up with a theme and then it's up to the members to decide how they use the theme.

If member enters a picture of a nicely kept, well spec'd well loved car as you said but that member is also a keen photographer chances are you going to get an artistic photo submitted. The only way I could see around this would be to run a pro & amateur comp.

You bring up a fair point though.

If you have any suggestions on how we could improve the comp let me know. :thumb:

This is something i've wanted to try for ages and finally got around to trying it (and it went a little better than expected). I've used a DSLR and all that jazz, so if you see it as being unfair, I understand if you want it removed Steve!
