Bimmerpost Photo Contest #8 (Serenity) **VOTE FOR A WINNER HERE**

BMW F22 · 03-22-2009, 03:28 AM

First of all I would like to thank UdubBadger for helping me set up the poll!

We had 20 entries total but 2 didn't make the cut for the reasons below. So we're left with 18 great entries to vote on. I also realized that due to the theme, it helps to take just a few seconds to look at the picture rather then voting for the one(s) that just pop out at you.

Tommiexboi- I didn't include your picture in the poll because it's too big. I was going to include it since it's my contest but then I figured that everyone should know the rules by now since it's our 8th contest.

spectrumphoto- I honestly didn't think your submission met the criteria. I tried to be "calm" by looking at your picture and it didn't work at all.

Anyway, all the usual rules apply:

Multiple votes ARE allowed and your votes will be public.
Voting will end in 7 days on Sunday, March 29th at about 3:30 AM EST.

If the poll closes and we have a tie there will then be a 24 hr lighting round of voting where voters will only be able to choose 1 photo of the tied entries.

Thanks to all who entered and lets vote!!

Then I call SHENANIGANS!!

That room was extremely calm when that image was taken a la "The Quiet After The Storm" theory. Just think what activity had gone on in there beforehand to get it to that point.

I guess perception can be limited for those without an open mind. C'est la vie...

Viva la Resistance!!!!

We should consider getting whoever runs the front page of BimmerPost to announce the winner of these photo contest - much like how they announce the "M3 of the Month" for instance.
