Welp, I guess I'll open the floor to Fido

I wouldn't mind some constructive criticism about why my shot didn't make it. Though, I've been out of the game when it comes to submitting for the comps, I'm probably just rusty .

This Week's News:

Well, the previous week's winners are still waiting on prizes, since PSN's still down, but I am keeping track of these things so as to get back into it when it comes back up. The winners of this week will receive a certain venomous ride...

 

[gtuned]

Damn, I only made PMC, I must of sucked this week.

 

[tonilleshusband]

I guess my Jag was not as good as I thought. Critique?

 

[Rossticles]

Wow. I'm so glad I made it. I probably stand no chance of winning, but it's good to see a photo of my real life car (Evo IX) in the polls.

Ferrari 599 gets my vote. I like the city vibe and cool colors.

 

[Pebb]

@ Rossticles: Thanks for the vote.

Damn, I only made PMC, I must of sucked this week.

I would of preferred to make the PMC contest over the 2.0 contest, seeing how I feel my PMC entry would of had more of a chance.

Instead of my PMC 2.0 entry.

 

[MetalBeerSolid]

The 2 shots I put effort into (2.0 and CCCL) don't make the poll and the shot I half-ass (PMC) does make the poll?

I was quite happy with my entry for this comp:

Not good enough, I guess.

I feel you had a better shot, compared to some of the entries that made the poll

Thanks.

 

[CCShaft7]

Got through.. woo hoo. Not a hope of winning but hey ho... undecided where my vote is gonna go , this must be some of the highest quality I've seen so far and I can see at least 5 that deserve to come out top. Well done to everyone 👍

 

[AaronCarlsonGt5]

[ashes619]

Well you are better then me. I didn't make it into the polls

 

[aidan8500]

[SVX]

This poll is so awesomely awesomely awesomely awesome. This was SO hard to vote on. What I do, is I click on all of the photos I like, and compere them back to back. What happened, was that I had so many top favourites, I had to scroll to scan between them!

 

[kanisama]

This really is a great theme and the entries are fantastic! Must have been tough for Fido to select the poll entries.
Really enjoyed watching this one and "The Dark Side" from the other week.

 

[JediRage]

Got into 3/3 polls this week. I was worried about this comp because most of the entries were total blinders. Looks like a two way battle so far.

Tangled Web has similar angles in his pic in CCCL and 2.0 . Still, both are excellent photos.

 

[jgda9rs]

there's like one good shot on that poll LOL i agree with MetalBeerSolid about his statement LOL

 

[bmxmitch]

there's like one good shot on that poll LOL i agree with MetalBeerSolid about his statement LOL

I hope you where kiddin!?

There are so many shots that deserve to win, pickin out one to vote on was a pain in the ass!
Very god job everyone. 👍

and again, the judge can't do it right for everyone.....

The 2 shots I put effort into (2.0 and CCCL) don't make the poll and the shot I half-ass (PMC) does make the poll?

I can feel your frustration. It was exactly the same with my shots in the last week.
I felt pretty confident with my Gallardo shot and thought I should stand a chance in this week. Seeing that its not in the poll can be very disappointing. But hey, its still just a internet competition for fun, so no big deal here!

Also, I liked your shot, but wasn't feeling the theme somehow....

I wouldn't mind some constructive criticism about why my shot didn't make it. Though, I've been out of the game when it comes to submitting for the comps, I'm probably just rusty .

I think it just was the wrong car for the theme.......




now I sounded like I was the judge. LOL
btw, I voted for the Volvo. Gives me the best feeling of a journey and looks just stunnin. But it was a damn hard decision this week, yet again!!!

Outstandin work everyone and thanks for 1 vote so far.

 

[f1webberfan]

LOL, looks like I didn't understood the theme. 💡
Good luck to all the competitors!

 

[Tracksmith]

i so thought i was going to make poll with my pic.

 

[Fido_le_muet]

Hi guys ! I hope the poll didn't came too late as I was away for the weekend, visiting family in Paris.
I must say being judge is fun but it's also a tough job.

I've collected 53 entries this week and there were only 20 spots in the poll so you can imagine that I had a hard time deciding.
Some of you didn't make it and I'm truly sorry for that.

I mainly looked for scenes that are likely to happen during the holidays. And for beautiful photography of course.
If you didn't make it, I can explain my choices if you want my opinion.

Good luck to all those who made it and for the others, there's always next week ! 👍

I wouldn't mind some constructive criticism about why my shot didn't make it.

Hi SlipZ. I liked your shot a lot, it's nicely done as often but like bmxmitch said, the Zonda seemed a little bit too exotic for this theme. Going in holidays in a Zonda seems a bit unpractical for me^^

Damn, I only made PMC, I must of sucked this week.

Despite a good choice of car, you didn't make it cause I couldn't see any scenery in your shot and that was something I was looking for.

I guess my Jag was not as good as I thought. Critique?

Like I said, I was expecting to see some tourist assets of the locations you picked. In your shot, we can only see a street. There's so much more to see in Rome ! The composition is great though and I love the E-Type

@MetalBeerSolid : I liked your shot but it didn't really fit the theme IMO. It felt too dark. It could have been an entry for last week theme 👍

@ ashes619 : I can tell you that you almost made it. It was really a tough job to pick a Top 20. I liked your composition, but eventually I thought the Ruf/Porsche was a little too much for this theme.

@ jgda9rs : Great shot, I liked the colors but the Kubelwagen... It's not the first thing that comes to mind when I'm thinking holidays.

@ f1webberfan : I wanted to see stock cars only and the 380RS was just too much.

Feel free to comment and if others want my opinion, don't hesitate to ask

 

[Pato Milan]

Thought I had a chance to get in but im not cuz surprised all the shots in this poll are amazing
Btw this was my entry:

 

[Fido_le_muet]

i so thought i was going to make poll with my pic.

I really want to apologize to you arsenal. I couldn't see your pic when I browsed throught the thread, it just wouldn't show ! I tried different browsers and other things but it didn't work and time was short this week so I couldn't ask for a repost or another solution.
I was anxious cause I usually like your pics but this time yours wasn't showing.
I'm really sorry because I think your pic would have made it.

 

[ZEROX]

Too much of awesome shoot!
It's hard to choose one.
Too bad i won't be part of it.
I guess my shoot didn't gave any 'holiday-trip feel' enough.....right?

 

[Fido_le_muet]

Thought I had a chance to get in but im not cuz surprised all the shots in this poll are amazing

I liked your shot but it's not colorful enough for my taste. Sorry

I guess my [F430 pic] didn't gave any 'holiday-trip feel' enough.....right?

Yes it's like you said. It's a gorgeous F430 right there but the holiday theme is not clearly visible

 

[skylinefx]

Now I am surprised I didn't make it.

 

[Jacob]

Tangled Web's RT/70 looks so fantastic, reminds me of a shot I took with the F2007 in the grass on Fuji.

Amazing shot, you got my vote. 👍

 

[Nicknamealguem]

TW image is one of the best image I ever seen around, quite surprised it's not winning by a huge margin.
The second picture has also a pretty good concept and describes the theme entirely, but I'm just not feeling the composition.

 

[Tangled Web]

Thanks Fishy, appreciate it. Very happy with the way that image came out, thanks for the votes guys.

Benmastaw00t got my vote, very fresh approach to the theme. Me like.

Thanking you too, Luísalguem.

 

[Moglet]

Tangled Web got my vote here, the image fits the theme perfectly and really conveys a holiday feeling. You can almost smell the grass!
