tbc: 'the banner contest' #90 - Get on our banner! | WINNER: Loek

[TIMELESS]

This was actually a brilliant theme, can't believe there wasn't more entries (especially from the oldies :lol:)

 

I did vote for 3 but Loek's photo in particular really has that classic NFS vibe IMO.

Congratulations to @Loek who has won tbc #90 with their wonderful capture of a speeding Ferrari 355 in the wet! An excellent second place was taken by both @Rassva and @hassan1995, with a very respectable third bagged by @Ozzmcom. This was a tricky theme due to the restrictions but all entrants pulled it off and it was easy to see that whatever image ended up winning that it was going to be a good one.

Something must've gone wrong there... I'm sure it was Milli's entry that was supposed to win... :think:

 

 

 

 

Nice to see the results validating my reasoning for not looking to compete, nothing was going to beat that shot. Congrats Loek.

:lol: Buying my plane ticket to Australia now. Someone has a life debt to pay.

 

Congrats Loek, one thing though, why did you paint the mirrors black? Such sacrilege!

[Loek]

That was a pleasant surprise :) thanks all who voted for me! @Milli I don't know actually. Long time since I used my 355 hence I probably did that at random a while ago. I'm a bit busy atm, I'll post the next theme when I get home later today.

[Eudemon]

I actually look forward to what you have in mind as your picture sets are always full of interesting set ups and ideas.

[Ryzza5]

pfft, come at me, shorty. :p

[Milli]

pfft, come at me, shorty. :p

[TimBud]

Nice on Loek

 

I was hoping for a few more pity votes as without my entry this contest would still be open. You're all so ungrateful :lol:

Okay, I'm pretty bad at this, as it's my first time to decide a theme. @Diablo: you set the bar of expectations high, so I had to do something composition related. My idea is probably not 100% loophole proof, but I figured it worked. I call it "street posing": park your car in a city/village/urban area (as most of it will be FH3: get a parking spot in Surfers Paradise) and photograph it, stationairy. Car, exact location, overall lighting effects is up to you, only rules are that it needs to be in a city-urban ish area (come on, you get the point) and put the car on stationary. Photo angle also doesn't matter (side view in the example but this may vary) This is not a promotion for my picture thread but this has gotta be my personal favorite example: [IMG]http://forum.turboduck.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=28701&d=1492531982[/IMG] Stationary, city area, car of choice, weather effects of choice. Simplified/TLDR: Stationary parked, in the city. Car and effects up to you.

[Eudemon]

Yeah sorry, I thought after I posted that it might freak you out but I left it to see what you would come up with in that scenario too. :cheeky: :evil:

 

So in a way I guess you are looking for shots that are akin to typical car spotting in London, Monaco, Dubai etc shots ?

[Loek]

I guess you could say that, yes.

I hope I elaborated the idea enough to make it understandable.

[Eudemon]

Yeah I'm sure you've said enough to make it clear. I'll get the thread up in the next hour or so.

[Eudemon]

Very well done. Right because of the Hot Wheels stream this is a bit later than I intended (what's new?!) but I'm doing it now, I promise.

 

HOLY CRAP THIS WAS MY 20,000th post!! :shocked:

[Ryzza5]

Even converted it to GMT for you, haha. You mean your 0th post, right? Where's @Baldy when you need him.

Very kind of you to do that to be fair.
