Well this one isn't fair anyway curts photo is photo shopped and it was no photo shop entries ............... well unless he removed the stickers from his bonnet and stuck them onto thin air?

What the hell are you on about?

[puglove]

In the photo curt has entered (at the top) what are the stickers down the left hand side stuck to if h has taken the bonnet off to take the pic?

glad im not the only one who noticed lol

[puglove]

same as that at least Im not being stupid, lol

I wouldn't mind if I hadn't got my photo shopped one that was the same turned down

[rocker8742]

Is it not because of how the pics taken with long exposure though, with the stickers being such a light colour they'd show when the bonnet didn't..

[puglove]

wut? how would that work??????

a magic camara that can see through metal?

[Curt]

Calm down Jamie, might be better to ask first...

It's a long exposure shot, as said. I could explain it but I haven't got time, it's not 'shopped, it's straight from the camera. It's basically exactly as Tom said

[Niall]

OOooh i see!

Rumour has it that curt had to blow dum dum to get that photo accepted. There is videos of it in the staff section....

[puglove]

still an edited photo then, not really point and shoot photo...

[Matt]

It's not edited atall though, it's one picture. It's long exposure take picture with bonnet down, while the exposure is doing its thing, lift bonnet. No computer trickery, curt is just a pro

[Curt]

How the f*ck is it edited? No it's not a bloody point and shoot shot, the whole point of a decent camera.

The rules are, no Photoshopping. Your photo WAS shopped. My photo... is not Photoshopped.

I don't get your current problem, just because it's different?

Thanks Matt

[4WayDiablo]

I see why people are bringing up the issue about curts photo as it is pushing the boundaries buuutttt I do think it should stay

And seeing matts votes I should have entered this...
And Scotts epic stealthbum

[Niall]

I do have to agree with Curt. Seeing as the misses is a photographer, some of the things she can do with a camera do look like photoshop effects.

4way, definitely should of entered that photo. Not the best photo but was such a epic weekend!

[Matt]

Haha phil I did say to dum that pic is epic, but you took it so only you could enter it lol

[Dum-Dum]

Jamie as explained to you by Curt (and me in PM) it's not a shop, it's just great photography and thats what this month is about. There will be a month for shopped photos at some point.

Would you like me to remove your comments so you look a bit less, erm, what's the word.

[Jake]

That photo is awesome curt!

[Dum-Dum]

Voting will close at about this time tomorrow and a thread with finalists will go up shortly afterwards
