And I am screeeeewed, that is fantastic Kyle. And for all the work Luís. 👍

EDIT:
It's even 100% for your entry SlipZ, but it is a great shot.

 

[Nato_777]

And I am screeeeewed

Likewise, DarkR's LFA is so good. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.

No it's not!

I really like the tone and composition of your shot, much more thoughtful than mine - it's only a few minutes in, it's far too early to make decisions yet!

Some fine entries in here, should be interesting to see how the votes fall over the next few days!

 

[Ferrari_458]

EPIC work SlipZ, probably the best use of panning mode 1 I have seen on GTP

 

[gtuned]

Fishy and Slipz was the hardest choice. I seriously went between both shots atleast 10 times before I went with Fishy's

 

[Nato_777]

Match 4 was the hardest choice for me.

 

[JediRage]

I liked the literal-ness of your photo. And the detail about where the driver is looking. 👍

 

[Nato_777]

Thanks, I did take that literal to the extreme (there's even a wayfaring stranger trudging across the barren landscape).

 

[Raphaele]

Nato, you matched the theme perfectly imho!
Really strange…

 

[Benmastaw00t]

Beautiful use of Panning Mode 1, Fishy and Slip! See, it isn't so bad.

 

[Fido_le_muet]

Sensational entries!
SlipZ entry is amazing. Yours too Fishy but you are up against a PhotoGod here.
I also had trouble picking one for match 4.
Can't wait for the results. It's gonna be a tough week for all entrants 👍

 

[Aragam]

Nato, you matched the theme perfectly imho!
Really strange…

Second that!👍
The guy out in the field is hilarious!

 

[bmxmitch]

Great pictures everyone! 👍

And nice Entry ZEROX! I love that you shot the front. One car, two different angles.

Good luck to all!

 

[Benmastaw00t]

I'm done.

 

[ZEROX]

And nice Entry ZEROX! I love that you shot the front. One car, two different angles.

Good luck to all!

Your butt shot are amazing! Can't deny that. 👍

Looks like it's over for me but i felt really refresh with my achievement.
Getting until the third round while beating the god-like photograper all the way until here!

Thanks for the vote guys and all the best of luck for those who move to the next round. Early congratz to Mitch, Slipz, DarkR and fkxpro!

 

[CCShaft7]

Outstanding entries one and all.

I could've voted either way in each match it was that close.....

'fraid to say Nato you've run into the DarkR juggernaut like I did I couldn't have produced a shot to compete with any of those above. Well done chaps 👍

 

[zambuca]

Nato and DarkR's match is a good example of how complicated it can be to read a theme, create a photo and then receive the votes it deserves. Both did a good job, but in different ways. Nato actually did everything right but I ended up voting for DarkR. Why? It was just a feeling. In the end all that matters is that special feeling you get when you see a photo. And today DarkR won that feeling.

This poll is very good! All the 8 artists here are winners.

 

[Watchman]

Outstanding quality in this poll!

If I had to pick a favourite, it would be either SlipZtrEm's or fkxpro's entry.

 

[fkxpro]

my favorite is the wayfaring stranger in the field and slipztrems of course is sick.

 

[cphbullet]

I only just realised this was up and the poll closes as i vote -_-

 

[zambuca]

The semi final is going to be awesome!

 

[Nato_777]

Congratulations DarkR - a well deserved win. 👍

Well at least I got more votes than the banners (just)

A big thanks to those that did send their votes my way - much appreciated.

Nato, you matched the theme perfectly imho!
Really strange…

Thanks Raph.

Second that!👍
The guy out in the field is hilarious!

That was an accident, but when I noticed him there I figured I'ld go with that shot.

Like running into a brick wall

I did actually go down the same path as DarkR in my photo shoots and had a blacked out shot very similar to DarkR's and also a whited out shot. I knew the more artistic approach would probably win, but decided to go the way I did as it's kind of more true to myself. Using a standard was also a big risk but I just love that RS4 and that colour (Hibiscus Red Pearl), though I think that is my best cleanup of a standard to date.

my favorite is the wayfaring stranger in the field and slipztrems of course is sick.

Thanks fkxpro. SlipZtrEm's shot was indeed sick. 👍

A little sad to go out now, but I'm really happy to have gotten this far at the same time. I wish everyone still in both sides of the tournament all the best of luck for the next round - this is where it gets insanely difficult.

 

[Jacob]

Congratulations Kyle, I thought your image was pretty good from the start, but it grows on you. And now, I really can't in anyway complain regarding me losing to that.

Good luck to all who proceed. 👍

And thanks to all who have voted for me so far, it's really strange seeing me go so far, since I missed out on the deadline in the first one, and got eliminated in the 2.0 qualifier last time.

 

[Nicknamealguem]

Final Score Updated. Next round will be up later today.

I think that speaks volumes to how much your shots have improved over the months: you've won numerous comps, remember! And that means next Tournament, you'll be on the podium in some way, right?

Thank you for a good match - yours is a great shot too, though the preview does it no justice, as the full size really shows off the quality and scale of the blur. I like the more realistic tone, too.

Really surprised I'm advancing, as I'm still not very happy with the shot. I have to go deal with a bunch of Guinness-swilling drunks, but I'll finally have reviews up later in the day. Thank you everyone for the votes

 

[DarkR]

Congratulations DarkR - a well deserved win. 👍

Thanks Nato 👍 thanks to everyone who voted for my pic 👍

This was a great, beautiful poll great work everybody 👍
