Excellent image Tommy, that pink purple car in the background really makes it. The machine element is kinda tenuous though, but I'll let you pass just this once.

Paaaah ... blatent brown nosing favouritism amongst the L Twins Two shots lauded, neither of which are even half recognisable

....anxiously awaiting the results

And here are the results:

totally agree

for a minute there reading the hype thought Petkins had a change of personality but then along comes the norm. >

"Birdstroke, when we talk "lomography" here we do not mean "CA tomography". Get a life, dood, stop playing with your cranium.
Rejected although the subject might have had a near-flight experience as induced by therapeutic doses of Methadone "


(:lol

(great picture birdstroke)

_______________

The Overall Contest Winner is Maria with her "Church renovation" entry.

Upon further reflection, for a judge it is really not entirely appropriate to try second guessing the photographer's ideas, intents and messages behind an entry. Indeed, Maria's intent could be very different from the way I see that image, and I see it in a very good and spiritually uplifting, not neccessarily religeous, light. No doubt, the picture makes us think a bit, which is a hallmark of a good photograph. That's what I think is important...the impact a photograph has on the viewer.

Thank you all for your fine contributions to this thread.
