Sure, you can change your mind, right up till the deadline if you want.

But how is that a "non-Golf Vehicle" as per the competition subject?

As it's a "non-Golf vehicle", but it doesn't count because of this rule:

8.) The photo must be taken for this competition, entries from your archives will NOT be accepted.

There's no prize either, it's just simply a means to exercise your photographic skills.

I think this one will do, until I shoot a better one.

Taken today, Minolta 50mm f1.7. Shot as RAW+Jpeg (so I saw the B&W on screen) then did the mono conversion in Lightroom with some small tweeks.

Ok, thought I'd try as they were the newest I've got and I can't get any better as she's sorn'd.

The Sill protectors are they to protect the sills when on a rough track as it's an AWD. I've got them fitted as they'r nla and super super rare! Will be removed when I've fitted the coilovers I'm saving for (£1500)  :shocked:
