CHAT: TRANSPORT Weekend competition 02-05 Februay 2012

Congrats to Jimmy and Mark. A close race up until the end Both great shots. My vote went to kerbside's 'High Speed Transport'. Great movement captured in the bus. Loved the composition and the added touch of colourful graffiti just swung it for me. Great shot.

Ups
Donoreo's 'Wagon Wheel' - nice take on the theme, liked the fact that you concentrated on the wheel, filled the frame nicely. I'm not sure about the colour and my only crit is the lightish colour leaf dead centre at the bottom, might have cloned that out

Downs
Twinnie's '16:29' - great shot, took me right into the train station, i liked the contrast between the colours and the silhouette of the woman. I maybe would have made the woman smaller in the frame, so as to not dominate. Just a slight crit. Other than that, great shot

Thank you to nick_gray for your vote. I was the last to enter (again) and thought I would do something a little different. I couldn't find a real camel so I had to go for the 'easy' option

You couldn't find a camel?

Lots of great entries again last week and 2 great winners.

My vote went to 16.29. I loved the atmospher of this shot and it had all the transport elements and lots of interest. great colours as well. i could almost hear the train announcements!

Above: Passenger Seat
Wow, lovely clean car; makes mine look like a pig sty! I liked the angle and the tones. maybe woudl have been a winner with a driver and a fast moving background :-)

Below: Redundant Transport
This was a lovely composed shot and the mono treatment worked really well with the decaying subject. The portrait orientation works well allowing the dof to give the image some depth. Very nicely done.

Take a shot of the back seat this week and you'll have a totally clean car - on the inside!
