Thats just a silly idea. What sort of theme would "Robbie's truck" be?

Serious suggestions only please chaps.

Congratulations ferris!

You got my vote..... but did you honestly not use any photo editing software on it? The contrast just makes it feel photoshopped!

Well done Ferris!

I actually voted for Scottie, but only because you chopped your bumper off holding the camera the wrong way. :hahaha:

Nice one ferris :guns:

Darn if only I didn't vote for you I would've come joint 1st :lol:

It's a good pic! Tramp I think ferris has some funky lense or a filter that he uses sometimes to get that sort of effect! Am I correct ferris.

We had some good pics this month, lets see some good ones for May as well :doublethumbs:

Thank you! It's certainly got more votes than I expected! My first idea was to buy a tin of shampoo or similar with 'flex' on the label & sit it on my dashboard, I couldn't find any thing suitable though. I think everyone who has entered this month has done really well, it was nice to have such a good turn out and to see everyone's interpretation of the theme, & all the photos were to a really good standard

Well i used a gradiant filter on my lens to darken the sky. I thought we were allowed to do some mild editting, so it has been touched up slightly using adobe lightroom.

Nice one Ferris. I voted for it. Cracking shot. :thumbup:

Nothing wrong with a bit of post processing. I always seem to end up increasing brightness and contrast slightly too. Makes shadows and lowlights look a lot better on LCD monitors which struggle to make a true black and if the by product is a nice shiny red zook all the better. :D
