October Photo Contest :: Sponsored by VacuCam

This is the 22nd installment of the monthly photo contest
Sponsored by VacuCam


Follow this link for the: Rules and Submission Instructions The deadline for entry is the 25th of this month.

NOTE: The photo contest is held to encourage people to take new photos with the topic in mind. As a result, please do not submit any photos taken before the contest topic was announced (see contest rules regarding EXIF data).

Thanks again to OctaneGuy and VacuCam for the continued support of the photo contest.



The prize for this month will be a VacuCam Tow Hook camera mount. Although it's still being manufactured, it will be sent to the winner when its finished. (Minus the Camera and Red Tow Hook). Better pictures coming later, but it's compatible with any small video/still camera.



If that doesn't appeal to the winner, they can opt to receive a detailing DVD.

In either case, the Tow Hook mount is there to increase your shooting options or the DVD is there to help you maximize the shine on your MINI for the next photo shoot!

Thanks OctaneGuy!


October's topic :: Fall Colors

Interpret that how you will, keeping in mind that the photos must be MINI related and that only one photo per member per month may be submitted.

The leaves haven't began to turn yet.
We do have beautiful colors here but they come in about the end of OCT.

Here is a sample from last year (not a Mini shot, got him in July '06)

Did you move your mouse pointer to the picture and left click it or not? If you did you would have pulled up Josh's home page. Then with the picture displayed, if you'll move your mouse pointer to the picture and left click it, allow it to expand (if your browser is set as such) and you will have a picture that is..............

2949px by 1390px and approximately 624.84 KB (639834 bytes) large

Or in simple terms; Just keep clicking on it........it'll get huge

Ok, now I feel like a total bafoon! I AM SO SORRY JOSH!
My wicked mind read "keep on checking on it"
Maybe I should have more coffee before using my computer.

My humble apologies Josh. The photo is amazing.

I tried following the directions to submit an entry, but there's no "Contest->Monthly Photo Contest" category in the gallery upload form.

If you click where it says "member gallery" then from the drop down menu you should see "October Photo Contest :: Fall Colors". That's the gallery you should use. I retitle it each month to include the month and the topic.

I followed the link up top for "rules and submission instructions", then "upload your image" which goes to gallery/uploadphoto.php?cat=500

From that page, the "Choose a category to upload your images to" select list contains "Member Galleries", "2007 NAM Calendar Contest", and "Travel Stories Gallery".

Using Safari on a Mac.

no problem. The root of the problem is really that the forum does not put a border around the image to let you know it is also a link, like other web pages do.

Hopefully, the winner will not be an obvious "fall colors" shot.

The local MINI folks like to kid me that the leaves don't turn brown, they turn Velvet Red. ;)
