Theme is............................... Fall (the season)

~Prize will be awarded by CobyWheel and will include an Alcantara wrapped wheel and boot package. Core and shipping cost to return the core is the only cost the member will be responsible for.


What is that? Like $20? That's ridiculous for a package of this magnitude ($250-$300 value).

~Car is Required (Must be a BMW flavor).

~The photo must be YOUR work, created with YOUR car.

~Winner will be decided by Me, Mike of CobyWheel, the moderators (Keith, John) and the forum founder, Mark Handy of www.peerlessfineart.com.

~Only one entry per person.

~No "Comped" shots. Stitched shots are be fine as long as the car and scenery were at the same place at the same time.

~Best Coast.....get creative. Show us what you're made of.

~Beast Coast.....you've got it made, so I'm expecting perfection.

~Once the photo is submitted, the post cannot be edited. The photo needs to be your own creation, and needs to be created during the submission period (i.e. not a previous work, but a new creation)

~The only people that cannot enter are the judging members (above).

~The last day to enter will be December 1st @ 2400 PST.

Ready, set, shoot!!!!!!

Yes correct. You can stitch multiple shots together of the same scene with different exposures but can't shoot your car in your garage and then bring in a photo of a barn and make it look like it was shot in the barn.

So much different down here in Tennessee. I have a few trees that are still green, then some with completely dead leaves and others with Autumn colors. Must say, the Fall season is much prettier up north.

I'm trying to think of locations to shoot. Any Walking Dead fans on here? They film it all within a 10 mile radius of my house. Thinking some of their filming locations may work as a good background for a shoot! Just need nice fall colors in the trees as well!

I went out on Saturday to take some pics. I had a really cool idea that I don't think anyone here is going to utilize for my photo, but I need a friend for that and our leaves are quickly falling, so because he didn't have time and we just lost an hour of daylight, I'm stuck with what I actually took.

Touched it up a bit; I'll post it when I get a chance to make final touches.

I went out scouting locations and found nothing. No good scenery and no good color in the trees! The most color tree I found is the on in my front yard! haha I did end up taking pictures and didn't like any of them. I also had some technical difficulties with my camera! The shutter button decided not to work and then was working only sometimes! I was debating on upgrading my camera body anyways, so I guess now might be the time to do it!

Thanks, it was not even that clean. Could be this color, it hides dirt and imperfections very well.

I got ZHP mafia decals on both sides. I just drive on the right side of the road and stopped there. Shot several pics and that one came out of the point and shoot just like that.

I did miss the best lighting and should have probably turned the car around.

i agree and have a love/hate relationship with my 135M's. they look 'right' on the car - almost better than any other wheel - but they are heavy heavy heavy! i am leaning towards some lightweight 17's in the spring. snows go on today...

Oh yeah, I had a crazy time carting all 4 summer wheels (135s) back into storage because they are so damn heavy! Other than that issue, those wheels look amazing on my car.

LOL Seth!

In SoCal, it's when the temps change from 72 to 68. :) Of course, we can drive to the local mountains to visit fall, but it's a short lived season. In others words, not much chance at all for a fall photo contest without quite an effort. A little different for the northerners, with more mountain options and a bit longer season.

BTW, Julian has great fall colors, it's about 2 1/2 hours from me.

I see zero mention of leaves falling or of fall colors below. Just bringing that to everyone's attention.

Every state has a Fall, Winter, Spring, and summer.

In North America, Autumn (Fall) is usually considered to start with the September equinox[5] and end with the winter solstice (21 or 22 December).[6] In traditional East Asian solar term, autumn starts on or around 8 August and ends on or about 7 November. In Ireland, the Autumn (Fall) months according to the national meteorological service, Met Éireann, are September, October and November.[7] However, according to the Irish Calendar, which is based on ancient Gaelic traditions, Autumn ĺFall) lasts throughout the months of August, September and October, or possibly a few days later, depending on tradition. In Australia and New Zealand, Autumn (Fall) officially begins on 1 March and ends on 31 May.[8]
