          Getting some very good photos in this challenge but I think there is more to be seen. Come on let's see where you & your Retro have been. Here is another photo of my car included with a unique piece of American architecture.

              I've never entered a photo in one of these picture challenges, but was just wondering,

              Are participants limited to one photo per challenge or unlimited photos?

              It seems that sometimes a single entrant posts more photos than there are total participants in the entire challenge.

              Maybe it's more of a 'photo showcase' than a contest?

                    Phil,

                    It is really more of a challenge than a contest. A challenge is put out to find picture(s) of our cars with a certain type background or picture composition. The challenger gets to pick the picture they like best (for whatever reason) and then the "winner" gets to pick the next challenge. The guidelines are posted on the first post of this thread, many pages ago.

                    It's really just an opportunity to show off our cars in pictures, without it being a formal contest like the TOTM is. Some folks are just so proud of their car(s) and the pictures they take of them they want to show more than one off during a particular challenge. For my money, we can't have too many fun pictures of our cars. I wish more people participated

                        It was just a simple question Ron. No need to get defensive.

                        Paul's response was helpful and informative, and I agree that it would be nice to have more participants. I'd submit except for the fact that most of the photos of my NM were taken by professional photographers for shows and promotional purposes and wouldn't qualify.

                        It could be that some members may be a bit intimidated and reluctant to enter. What with well over 10,000 members and I doubt even 40-50 that participate, perhaps there's an explanation or reason.

                          That was the whole idea behind the challenge - no need to be intimidated, because there is no voting by the masses. No need to worry -- I might only get one vote (mine) out of 150 or so. It's a pretty good way to get comfortable submitting pictures for others to see and enjoy. With a little positive feedback from here a person might feel more comfortable submitting a photo for TOTM.

                            I am not defensive, just wondering if you wanted something different. As far as I know you are welcome to post any pictures you want when they meet the challenge. Professional or otherwise. So show us what you have.
