Photo Contest

It's getting close to that time of year again, when we freak out because we haven't been given enough photos to do a calendar. That's right. We'Be asked and asked, and we don't have 12 photos. And I have two cars.

We need photos now!

So I'm making a unilateral decision and opening a photo contest, let's say for the next two weeks. Best shot gets a calendar (or extra calendar if you choose to donate already). Please post photos here, and then email the high-res versions to membership@sunbeamalpine.org. Or just send the email and I'll post them on your behalf.

A little inspiration:
  • Sexy shots near lakes, waterfalls, beaches, etc.
  • Got lovely autumn leaves? Shoot your car among them.
  • Got a car rusting into the ground? Send some shots in.
  • Shadows, interesting angles, reflections
  • Animals, pets, etc.
  • Garage shots, engine swap shots, etc.
  • Shots from behind as you wait for your milkshakes at McDonald's
  • That shot where your wife couldn't snap the photo in time so it looks like your car is going 100mph
  • Rare parts

If this doesn't work out, you're gonna get 12 months of my cars. And nobody wants that.

Does it count if it's me lying under my pine snoozing while I'm pretending to be working? Not that that ever happens

Beautiful photos!

I have a few that were sent to me in early posts. What is your "drop dead date" for submission and consideration for the next calendar?

I'd like to have the calendar designed and off to the printer by Thanksgiving, so ideally I'd like to have all photos for consideration by November 10. Photos that arrive on the 11th will be considered for the 2018 calendar.

I was looking at the November calendar page today. I would ask that if your car appears on the calendar next year, please post something about your car that month. Guest columnist.
