I would have voted F1_Master for subject matter and opportunity yet the white balance appears to be quite off so the colour is faded. So for simplicity and good panning I went with Soloracer.

I was actually going for the faded look. Trying to keep the interior brighter just made a mess of everything else outside the car. :o But, I appreciate the comment. :)

Thanks, I should have entered a better photo though, I have one of a GT SWB spinning out of control next to a 512M. That will have to be this weeks entry.

Soloracer got my vote, but I'm biased because that's my favorite car :D

Nice shot.

Aiasib, do you have a high-res version of that shot?
The ol' desktop needs a change.

According to UCP photography voting, I need to change my major. FML as a photographer.

EDIT: Although, admittedly, this is a weak submission from me. I think I have taken better shots in the past and hardly if ever garner very many votes.

Sir, I am honored sir. :P

One pic has been 'clarified' (poor man's HDR), the other is the very original.

Much appreciated. :)
As I'm sure I've said before, I enjoy photos that tell a story or have some tension in them. This one ticks the boxes and I really like the angle.

*Bump* Tie-Breaker?
