Great photos and we have many

But how difficult it is now to choose the best, very difficult to choose, thanks to good quality of photos

As much as I think no.5 should win (if only to annoy Thhhhpaynetah), it is unfortunately eclipsed by many others.

As a side note though, is no.2 cheating as I doubt a 300 of any kind could get to 120mph in 0.0 miles or was it just a fluke that the trip counter rolled over from 999 to 000..............????

Anyway, some excellent pictars there chaps!

The odometer is a bit high too, no? Maybe the trip counter/odometer are just broken, it's hardly a rare occurence is it?

Post by **germ** » 06 May 2007 10:22 am

Yes very cool photos indeed,

i think the trip was broken for that mines done it too.

Thanks again for enterys

Will

I should have voted for number 9 not only out of loyalty to the mark but also as its the only proper car amongst these pictures thats capable of REALLY moving (ferraris don't count) lol,

I couldent vote for 2 or 3 as I do not endorse dangerous driving (speeding in the wet and 50 mph above the national limit

)

however I voted 4 as I think it not only captures the topic of 300's in motion perfectly, but it is the most artistic and technically probably the most difficult to take (Which silly sod was tied to the bonnet to get that angle lol ) its also a picture I hadn't seen before and dosen't have Chris in it lol
so number four FTW

I love the angle of 7 and 8 (aww come on, I have to love 8, its such a sexy car)

10 looks superb, even if it is a very euro'd golf

I love sharp forgrounds with blurry backgrounds.

4? Wow, soggy person who can't be named

No 2 is a superb bit of photography. Nuff said.

The others also are bloody good, I'm not gonna comment on all of them, but this has to be the best we've had so far. Is this due to Will pestering everyone? Who cares, it shows we have some great photographers out there. This is why I created this competion, and as such I'm now very happy. Great stuff one and all, lets see the votes!

I had to think this hard, eventually it was duel between 3 & 4, which both are equal good, imo. Casted my vote to 3 as I just love how that corner sign gives nice touch and feeling that need to find brake pedal soon, also car is blue and I like that colour

But I must say that 4 is also incredible photo, capturing the moment really well, so decision was very difficult, still feeling troubled as I could pick only one, there should be two winners

thats exactly why I didnt vote for it lol driving too fast for the prevailing road conditions , ( wet road and approaching a bend )

But that certainly is just an illusion of speed created with long exposure time, rather than speeding towards wet corner where is oncoming traffic, but nevertheless very nice illusion effect it creates

Number 3 I smell some Photoshop radial blur.... some great pictures though, I've still yet to decide which to vote for

either that or it was taken by Matt , eyes glazing over after the corsa nudged him and he realized he wasn't going to make the bend

Wow.. some nice pics there. Though I have my own pic up there I cant help but feel that pic nr 4 is the best photo by far.. it doesnt show the 300 that well, but the splashing water looks awesome, nice composition too.

just because you dont like doing these things and are against them, doesnt mean its not a good pic.

if you are against them then fair enough, but dont ruin other peoples fun. (unless theyre setting animals on fire or are into necrophilia or something)
