MINI2 July Header Photo Competition - Sunrise and Sunset

[Paul]

The July MINI2 Website Header Photo Competition!

This Months' theme is: Sunrise and Sunset

One prominent feature of the MINI2 website is the large header image which takes pride of place above the MINI2 logo and main menu on every page. (Look up there ^^^^)

We'd like your creative input to keep MINI2 fresh and interesting!

Each month MINI2 runs a competition to find a banner image to add to the rotation.
Your photograph (and maybe even your MINI) could take pride of place on the World's busiest MINI site!

Plus, as an added incentive, we are offering free Privilege Membership for life to the winner(s) every month.

This months theme is - Sunrise and SunsetFor "Sunrise and Sunset" we are looking for photos of the MINI (or MINIs) at one of those magical times of the day when the light is just rising from, or dipping into the horizon.

You are completely free to use your imagination so far as the setting and style of your photography is concerned!

So GET CREATIVE, and show us what you've got!

The header image is 750 pixels wide by 105 high.

File size is not an issue, we'd rather have higher quality images we have to optimize a little to be acceptable for download times.

Please make sure that photos submitted are "pre-trimmed" to the 750 x 105 pixel dimension.

ANYONE can enter (mods, admin, privilege members etc.). If you already have Privilege Membership and win the competition, you will simply never have to pay renewal, it will carry on for life for free.

To make it fair (in terms of allowing moderators etc. to participate) the winner will be chosen by myself after the competition closes at the end of each month.

Please post all entries in this thread and this thread alone. You can post images as attachments, or upload them to the MINI2 galleries (or your favourite image host) and link to them from this thread.

Good luck!

Nice shot, but it's a bit too small.
