Two great entries! Chapeau! (as they say round here).

I haven't entered Round 3 yet ... with only one vote for Round 2 so far (and a very negative comment from a viewer) I've still got my fingers crossed in a big way ... but here is an article from one of the judges that some people may find useful, even if you're not going in for this competition:

Good luck everyone

This is my speedy image

This time not off topic

I am happy they take so small images, This was shot with a 3 MP camera and it was bad quality, so it is downsized quite a bit. I think because of bad camera and speedy images I am quite in a need for the EOS 1Ds Mark II Camera Wink

I hope Crestock has a similar view on this...

That is a b****y brilliant photograph, man. How did you do it?

I saw it just a few hours ago and I didn't realise it was from someone on here. The moment I saw it said to myself 'That's gonna be the winner." There is so much power in it.

I still have to post mine for the final round, but I don't think it stands much chance now Cry

Here my last second entry: http://www.crestock.com/blog/photography/contest2007/entry.aspx?id=4106

But after having seen all the other ones in this thread I think I don't stand a chance! But nevertheless remember you can vote for several images, just not several times for the same one! So, if you feel this image deserves a vote, I would gladly receive it Grin

I voted for you SY ... and one vote each for Sharply Done, Leaf, Freezingpictures and Eco too.

All great pictures, each one different in it's own way. It's interesting what a variety of interpretations of the theme there are (the ones from this forum are all very different) ... and yet, at the same time, how many are the same. There are several very similar pictures of a spinning ferris wheel for example.

Good luck everyone!

i am surprised at some of the photos in the top 10. I think someone has gathered their friends to vote on their images!

My hopes are with Eco as well.

Congrats Eco! Your image is amazing, I would say you are far ahead of the other images. You definetely should win the camera. A true speed demon!
By the way you have just got the 1D Mark III camera, any plans with your soon to be Mark II 1Ds Camera?

Nice that someone of this forum wins the contest Grin

Thanks guys

I really appreciate your support and votes. I believe we all dream of one day winning a big prize like that, but often when you feel the most optimistic about your chances it never happen. Now it is out of my hands. I will never lobby for votes in an unethical way - something that is apparently rive with the Crestock competition (if you can believe some of the allegations made about this in the Crestock forum). Hopefully the judges will be the big equalizer.

Let the best image win.

Yeah. There is obviously some major cheating going on. Just look at the top-scoring images (by public votes) in Round 1. Out of the top 5, one breaks the rules (with a border) and two others are ... let's be honest ... totally c**p images. 3 out of the top 5 non-starters. Very disappointing. And, what's more, they are highlighted on the Contest results page. There are way, way better pictures that have been submitted but got nowhere.

Personally, I feel this contest should never have been thrown open to public voting. It's far too easy to cheat on the internet.
