Just got an email today saying that I am a semi-finalist in a contest with Chyrsler and John Varvatos. Now on to phase 2 of the contest. I'm not 100% sure what I have to do now, I'm still going over the information. I really don't expect to go much further or even win the grand prize. Just thought I would share cause I honestly did not think I would even make it this far.

Congratulations, it is a nice feeling when something like this happens whether you win it or not - you had a go.

Care to share the images or are they only for that contest?

I think I can share, but I wont really know...I'm going to print out the rules and such later and go over them. If I can share I will, but I want to make sure that I wont get in trouble first. Oh btw being a semi-finalist I won $1,000 (I think). Just gotta fill out a couple papers and such. Shouldn't be too hard.

Very moody image, the sides needed to be softened too, in my opinion.

Well that image got me this far, but I will take your advice Paul. And Thanks Clare. I dunno if I want to go all the way honestly. The grand prize is attending a benefit thing in L.A, Ca. Not sure what it is, but something tells me I'd have to ware a suit. I don't do suits.

Congratulations on getting that far buddy....

As Paul said, it's certainly a feel-good factor to be noticed for your work. I hope you do win but even if you don't, you can hold your head up proudly.

Btw, what is the grand prize?

The grand prize is attending a benefit thing in L.A, Ca. And a chance to meet John Varvatos and 5 grand. I'll take the 5gs. If I do win I gotta figure out who to take.

I was playing around and came up with this. THIS IS NOT FOR THE CONTEST. So I have no problem showing it too you peoples. I used some stock photos that were given to me by the contest sponsors. BU012_181EV.jpg
The reason I used the Timeless Classic tag was cause the Chrysler 300 series began in 1955. Even from the beginning the whole idea of the car was high performance luxury. Yeah I'm a bit of a gear head.

i would integrate the text more into the scene so it looks like its in the scene instead of just in the front.
and i would see how a view from the front of the car looks rather then from the back
