Lexx Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Not sure if I'll be able to get up North for a shoot before the closing date I'll just have to keep the pics and enter them next year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinmac Posted October 17, 2008 Author Share Posted October 17, 2008 Need to move it along as there must be time to vote and then get the printers going. It doesnt start until Feb 1st so that helps. Get Al sorted as soon as you can and he will get a chance to be in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarnie Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 3rd & 4th ones are ace Sarnie, how come whenever i post a pic of my car showing my front LED's, which are identical to these, you slate the sh!t out of me/them?? I was keeping it on topic (for once) and commenting on the artistic merits photo, not the content. For the record I hate the LED's............very chav imo........

martinmac Posted October 19, 2008 Author Share Posted October 19, 2008 This will close on Sunday 26th October to allow me time to sort out the entry thread for voting before I jet off to the sun. You will then have until the 10th November to get your votes in. Once the voting is closed I will post details for ordering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martinmac Posted October 22, 2008 Author Share Posted October 22, 2008 Now that is amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinmac Posted October 22, 2008 Author Share Posted October 22, 2008 Just a little something to make this more interesting. Lasy year there was club merchandise up for grabs with every order of a calendar. Many people on here have now bought jackets and shirts so I have just negotiated a terrific deal for this year. For every calnedar order you get one entry. Buy 2 and you get two entries etc. The person drawn from the list of people placing orders will get an exclusive canvas print of any of the winning entries including the front cover. You can choose. Remember, I am only ordering a limited number of calendars so once the voting is completed in mid Novemeber, get your orders in quickly to avoid missing out.

rmmackfc Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Hi, just added this to the other thread... ... a wee photoshop to remove the lampost would improve this even more IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulR Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Better still, if anyone has an angle grinder, I'll just take the lamp-post down. I kinda like the two lamp-posts in that pic though, they frame the Reds nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S1 HNK Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 fantastic shot mate, i actually like the lamp posts too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARphotographs Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 i like the lamposts but part of me wants the car in colour, now i've said that i'm guessing its probably a gunmetal/silver one? even still i feel that would help put the view on the car aswell as the trails, cause just now its more just the trails.

Cool Hand Luke Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 I agree with Adam, even if its gunmetal it will still stand out a bit more in colour due to reflections, license plates, bumper reflectors etc. At the moment your eye is drawn to focus on the trails with the car as just part of the background.

3FIDDYZ Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 I'm assuming the last one was taken at 'the national' it is a nice pic but would make a silly entry in my opinion. It may have been, but was chosen quite carefully as the owners of all 4 cars post "cross code" But I do understand if its not used Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cool Hand Luke Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Ok, here are my submissions - the first one i took with a little point & shoot camera and the last two were taken by Adam, maybe people can help me decide which one to choose as my final submission?

Sarnie Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 I might be on my own here but I think the members calender should consist of pictures of the members cars taken by the members themselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris`I Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 I might be on my own here but I think the members calender should consist of pictures of the members cars taken by the members themselves. I think it should be pics of the clubs Zeds taken by members. So anyone can take a pic of anyones cars. Otherwise you'd never get any moving shots of your own car Its still one pic per member, so if you want to submit a pic of someone elses its up to you. And if you dont have a good pic of your car but someone else does, you should be able to submit it (with their permission of course). Should probably limit the total number of pics per member, otherwise the calendar could turn into a portfolio for Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunsetZed Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 LOL, I'm with Chris although if it's a portfolio for Adam but with 12 different Zed's then to him but I don't think you can really discount someone's entry just because Adam took another photo of a different Zed!

Chris`I Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 The other thing you have to remember is that everyone votes on it. The chances of everyone voting for the same 12 and them being a high concentration of 1 member is very unlikely. Also, if I take a photo of someones car and it makes it, it makes 2 people proud, me for a good photo and them for their car being in it. Possibly we should limit it to one shot per actual members car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARphotographs Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 i've only submitted one entry the others are doing exactly what you said, "I think it should be pics of the clubs Zeds taken by members." i am a member but its their car dont worry, any of the ones i shot, won't have the sig put on them for the calendar.
