Well done Germ, and I'll make an effort too and get a pic now I've got working cameras! Pick an interesting topic mate, and there are previous topics and entries here....... http://www.volvo300mania.com/forum-uk/v ... php?t=3500

Thanks to every one that voted for me!


well ive been thinking about a topic and not had much luck....i thought :DRIVE BY


so you drive and take a pic while the car is moving,idealy the car would be in focus and the back ground blur, but it would look very interesting how ever it comes out

give me some thoughts on this good bad idea etc
and any other ideas would be recieved very happily.
Thanks
will

My gut instinct says nice idea, however it is going to be illegal on the public highway, due to the use of a handheld electronic device to distract the driver..... If using a mobile phone which is normally just talked into and lsitened to is illegal, operating a complex camera with screen etc isn't going to down too well with dear Mr Plod! Not wishing to urinate on anyones proverbial bonfire and appear very boring, but it could be quite dangerous and attract a fine.....!

If it was confined to off road...... and safe places then maybe, but it might limit people on finding a suitable spot.......

I know what you mean though about the pictures being artistic and interesting, got some interesting pics when we went to Belgium from Andy's car as the sun was setting.

Ohh, very interesting. I've got a few pics that were taken around Christmas that would suit that perfectly

It'd also be very interesting if the pics were taken from the outside of the car, by someone other than the driver, although this will require the co-operation of a friend... I've often wanted to do some motion photography if a suitable location arose.

^^heheh thats kind of what i ment but both is good as long as you dont brake the law.

Hows about a title like '300's in motion', which keeps it fairly open. Maybe even d3k4y0's avatar could make it in

Dave's avatar rocks! Erm, right, ok, could be an interesting one this.

potentially a great photo subject

surely to stay within the spirit of the competition it would require the friend to be driving the car while the V3M member took the photo ,

Ahh... I don't like the sound of that
I think this is a belting idea for a competition, the only problem is that I don't want some other numpty either driving my car, or using my camera!

That said... maybe we could keep this title for a time when we have a big meet (hehe, I said big meat!). And then could photo each other!

On the other hand, my dad also has his S40, so I could always take a photo of that!

I don't quite know what you mean about my avatar! I wasn't moving, just making lots of noise and annoying the neighbours!

come on any ideas?



MICK!!! you must have one...any thing that doesent involve golfs

but you can ofcourse enter one,just stick a volvo sticker on and noone would notice


mmmhhh idea's ....

Please don't let mick loose with the stickers again

no stickers promise

how about ancient meets modern , ancient being the 300 lol and modern being a piece of modern architecture , could be a sculpture , an office block whatever


if I had a 300 I would be straight down to the new MK Dons stadium for this one

Couple of random ideas:
- Planes, trains and automobiles - photos with other modes of transport?
- Close ups - could be artistic?
- Nature
