Further explanation of the theme, as described by Beeblebrox237:

"This week I get to command a theme I've wanted to see for a long time: spy shots.
It seemed that GT5's inclusion of the GTR Black Mask was begging for a recreation
of a Nurburgring test session. So that's what I'd like you to do. Take a photo of this car
at the Nurburgring that might be featured on Jalopnik or topgear.com as a spy
shot of a new car (in this case the R35 GTR) being performance tested. Have fun!."


CAR: Nissan GTR Black Mask.
LOCATION: Nurburgring Nordschleife.

UNIQUE RESTRICTIONS: No filters, please, and keep it realistic.

Really challenging theme to get a realistic shot

Its hard to make a realistic spy photo :lol:

Such a horrible car to look at let alone photograph!

:sly: The idea was that it would be challenging to recreate a spy shot, but not impossible.

Here are three real spy shots of this car, for a bit of inspiration. Note that the photographer wants to capture the car as best as possible.
 
FINAL ENTRY


Karl was merrily biding his time shooting photographs of trees for next month's Auto Bild magazine when all of a sudden, he heard a loud sound fly by him. He immediately turned towards its source, taking a picture of it as fast as he could. He couldn't believe his eyes as the photograph developed, staring in awe as Godzilla charged its way through the forest.

There are currently 15 entries, so that means that everyone will be in the poll. I'd love to have a few more to choose from, so I'll keep this open until about 8:00 EST.
 
Competition Closed!

Since there weren't that many entries, I'll give feedback on request instead of all at once. If you want feedback on your entry, post in this thread, the poll, or PM me. :)
