That's my daughter & partner, I was taking the photo.

It's a bit hard to judge the cutoff time as I am in Austarlia?

Royal Melbourne Botanical Gardens




The above shot of the Royal Melbourne Botanical Gardens.

Was taken using an Infrared Filter.

They typically excel in their depth of field character as infrared light rays cut through any atmospheric haze like a knife through warm butter.

Thus they are often used by the military for specific reconnaissance operations where such high detailed performance is desired.

No offense but some of the pictures submitted are just of water and not "water in motion." I guess technically water in the oceans/lakes/rivers/etc. are always moving but IMO it doesn't quite match up with the idea of water in motion.

very true... well if Techforge doesn't want to include those in the poll its up to him... I mean it does state that "Any interpretation of the theme that falls within Bimmerpost.com rules is welcome." but if its just water and not water in motion then maybe it shouldn't count since its not really meeting the theme requirements.

BTW whats up with that late entry by Anile8? are we not reading the thread anymore just posting random pix that are not only not of water in motion but also a whole day after the deadline????

I mean its a nice pic but its just funny people don't bother reading the thread for the contest info.

If no more people are allowed to enter, then lock the thread and start the poll.

only mods can lock threads. this is how it's been done for the past 6 contests. there's no tangible lock, but there is a deadline.

there is no need to lock the thread... it's just kinda sad to see people not even fully read through the 1st post.

Maybe the thread needs to be locked. I don't have a problem with the submission that was a couple hours late, but a day is out. I'm probably going to need somebody to do the poll since I'm covered up with work for most of the week and I can't do much from my iphone.

guys I'm making the poll right now... some of you need titles and some need to resize (others need to pick which one of the 3-4 they posted that they want to submit). PLEASE CHECK YOUR PM'S

BMW E90... your box is full, please tell me which pic you want submitted to the contest or else I'm posting up your 1st submission.

I'm gonna be a nice guy and give everyone till tomorrow morning to fix their shit (only because I made the poll and then fucking x'd out of the browser window on accident and I'm frustrated as all hell right now).

Tomorrow 11am CST the poll is going up so if your issues aren't fixed you'll be left out.
