Recon Mission: 3 - "Chase The Sun"

Congrats to tedmcedd as he was last months winner in "Spummer" his entry can be found here: Recon Mission: 2 - "Spummer" - Entries, his idea that he has chosen for the next mission is a sunset theme.

The Mission

Submit one sunset themed shot of your mini. Your car must be visible in some portion of the photo, Photoshop retouching is not allowed.

Voting will be based on creativity, visual impact and overall wow factor. Not based on how good your SLR is compared to a compact or mobile phone.

The competition will begin now (16:20 - 31/05/2011) and all entries must be in by Saturday 25/06/2011 at 24:00 where voting will then commence. Voting will end on Saturday 02/07/2011 at 24:00 where the winner shale then be announced the following day and the next 'Mission' will also be announced.

The rules: Please Read

The picture must be your own,
The mini doesnt have to be yours but you must have the owners permission to use the car in your pic,
If Photoshopping is allowed for a 'Mission' then Photoshop and other photoeditting software may only be used for retouching (brightening, enhancing colous slightly etc) not for heavy editting (no adding objects etc),
The next 'Mission' along with whether or not editting software is allowed at all and how much of the car must be visible (Whole car or not) will be decided upon by the winner and announced by MiNi_BoRe, if no 'Mission' is decided upon by the winner within 48 hours from the end of voting then second place will get to decide,
All votes are final,
You may only submit one pic per 'Mission' if more then one pic is uploaded by a user then the first uploaded pic will be used within the vote, if you upload a pic and then change your mind, please remove your previous pic so that it isnt submitted by mistake.

this competition is seriously biased, i live in scotland and therefore cannot enter as there is no sun here!

surely this suits you to the ground!! CHASING the sun?? forever chasing....

[the_r_sole]

haha, you need at least a glimpse of it to give you something to chase!! gale force winds, rain and clouds isn't great sun chasing weather!!

[Sam_The_Man]

do you have daytime? does that count as sunlight? long shot i know.....

think ive got a good idea for mine, just need to wait for the right time and need to find a good place!!

[the_r_sole]

well, the sky is now moving from grey to darker grey, which could indicate it's nearly sunset, but could also just mean the rain is about to get heavier!!

or if theres a sunset billboard near you, that could be a good idea!!!
