Further explanation of the theme, provided by first-time winner Lankay:

"in the aim to get less and less fuel mileage, manufacturers are turning their heads towards alternative power sources such as electricity and hydrogen. I'd like to see them go head to head with their gasoline exclusive counterparts.
There will be no track limitations and photo travel is allowed, as most if not all the hybrids and electric cars are premium anyway."


CARS: Hybrids and electric cars
LOCATIONS: Any
PHOTOTRAVEL: Yes
UNIQUE RESTRICTIONS: See above

Please, ensure you read and understand all requirements for this competition. Failure to follow
the rules may result in disqualification. If you have questions, send me a Private Message.
This Thread will answer many possible questions you may have.

  • It is recommended you host your image on ImageShack, Photobucket, or Flickr.
  • Not sure how to post a thumbnail or preview image? Read this sticky!
  • Please use a clickable-preview to full-size, not a separate text link for it;
    it makes poll creation much easier!

  • No post-GT5 editing, besides proportionally resize and rotate, is allowed.
    [*]One entry per user. It must be your own work, and never previously used in a comp.
    [*]Do not ask other users to choose your entry.
    [*]Mark your FINAL ENTRY clearly, with red text. On H2H weeks, which side, as well.
    [*]You may change your entry once. Do it clearly; edit out your previous entry, and
    either post the new one in a new reply, or in place of the original.
    [*]When submitting, use either a thumbnail or a preview image, linked to the full-sizer.
    [*]Preview images can not exceed 500 pixels in either direction.
    [*]A preview image must be representative of the full-size image. Do not add effects to it.
    [*]Do not post "Honourable Mentions" or outtakes - just your Final Entry, that's all.
    [*]Winner gets to choose the following week's theme, as well as the Top 25. Every fourth
    week, the poll will be H2H style: entries must choose a "team", leading to two 12-picture,
    4-day polls. The winners from each faces off in a final 48 hour poll.
    [*]Winners cannot enter in their own theme!
    [*]The Host may ask for the original image and it must be submitted if so.
    It's recommended to save the original image (preferably in-game) until week's ends.
Failure to follow these rules will result in ignored entries and/or disqualification!

Ive not even used the tesla, the only ones ive used were the TC CR-Z and that was just in phototravel for the chrome week and the leaf in GT Academy.

Also sorry if im being a little slow but this confused me 'I'd like to see them go head to head with their gasoline exclusive counterparts', do our photos have to feature a hybrid and petrol car?

A few tips for your entry:
  • Move your camera a little bit higher
  • Tilt the camera to one side (at this case, probably to the right side), but don't make it too much
  • Turn the EV up a LITTLE bit
  • Focus on the car such that it will become clearer, if it doesn't work, turn up the aperture (F number) a bit
  • If all the above points are used, but the entry still looks bad (IYO), then try to photo-shoot the entry again with a stock car
Lastly, this is only my opinion. It won't secure you a place in the polls, but hopefully it will increase your chance of getting into the polls ;)

I thought it was a good shot but as usual, I was wrong. I'll change it later. Thanks for the tips

It is too big unfortunately. And you need a link to your full size picture. 👍
