Further explanation of the theme, provided by tonilleshusband:

"Big Cars, Big Power, Big Style, Big Wheels, Big Attitude. As Summer is upon us and most of
us don't want to spend all our time indoors this is a very open competition. There is no weight,
height, length or HP restrictions - all I want is for the feature car of your shot to look like
6'9", 255lb (206cm, 116kg) Zdeno Chara of the Stanley Cup champion Boston Bruins, HUGE."


CARS: Any Big Vehicle - be it for size, power, attitude or any reason you want.
LOCATIONS: Anywhere
PHOTOTRAVEL: Yes
UNIQUE RESTRICTIONS: Vehicles smaller than Big may be in the shot, as long as
they are being towered over. Or fed upon.

Congrats to all who made the poll, Sorry to all who didn't - know you made it hard for me. Any questions feel free to ask.
 
Any reason why I didn't make the poll?



I honestly thought I could win this week. Guess not.

My favorite picture that I took this week was the only one that did make the poll :lol:
 
I guess big green Dodge Rams didnt fit the theme MBS :indiff: only poll I missed this week. No hard feelings though 👍.

Great entries but not too sure how some fit the theme :dunce: just me I guess.
 
You made Midget very sad, how could you?!

No hard feelings ;) With such creative theme you ca never be sure you'll fit it.

I'm alos not sure if my Entry fits in there. But at least the big crane made it! :lol:

But the Ram? Sorry for you guys, but it just got so poor textures....sadly:guilty:
I'm sure you both would've made it if the car just looks a bit nicer.

I think your crane shot fits perfectly 👍..... and that has even lower res than the Ram :crazy:, because of that I did'nt believe that a low res standard would be dis-counted because of that reason alone. Its probably my bad interpretation TBH.... shoulda stuck with my Fiat 500 lol.

My shot is the R8 in the Eiger tunnel. I'm not sure who entered the crane again, but I just loved the idea! :)

And a shot shouldn't be dis-counted just because of its low resolution-car, absolutely right and don't get my wrong with that.
But in the end it can ruin a great captured shot. Just my opinion....
 
Apologies.. I read your first post wrongly :dunce:.

Quite a difficult theme to get a handle on in the end.... looking like we may have a winner already though :sly:
 
I'd like to know why my Mercedes missed the cut please.

The reason yours did not make it is because it was quite dark. I realize that was your intention but I have found in GT5 that dark shots are a little hit and miss. I like it for sure, bit there were about 35 shots I wanted to put in the poll this week and I couldn't have them all.

Sorry MBS, your's was my last elimination and it pained me to do so. I loved the concept and the composition of your shot. What let you down was not the quality of the truck but the quality of the texture of the people in it. If the picture would be based on 500px preview only it would have made the poll. I just found my eye going directly to the people and they had a bit of a weird look. I know that's the game, but if the shot had been moved over a few feet it would be in the poll.

Hmm. Very well...
 
As surprised as I am to see myself running in 2nd place ATM, HagbardCeline has just offered the absolute perfect comparison. Makes me wonder why I didn't think of it :eek:
 
^ Thanks for the kind words, it's funny, the idea popped into my head whilst taking this shot. Sometimes those are the ones that turn out best :D I'm humbled by the amount of votes I've had so far, cheers 👍
 
Some stunning entries this week. I went for the crane. So original:dunce:

Could I have some feedback about my R8 shot that didn't make it?
 
^I loved your R8 shot ThaSyn, i had decided to vote for it. My shot didn´t make the poll too, and i liked it, but it´s ok, there are a lot of good entries in the poll. The beatiful big ass Audi gets my vote.
 
Congrats HC. 3 times more votes than the next competitors :crazy:

Also thanks for the votes everyone. Managed to come out joint 2nd :crazy:
