A little competition!! 444-544

All right everybody - listen up!

I'm located in Denmark - collected and drove Volvo always and have 10 of them today.
Some time ago I decided to build up a little business with my huge hobby as a enormous "goodwill" - so in not so long, you'll hopefully be able to surf by one of the most dedicated sites to the classic Volvo's.
The main core of the site and business is originality - in data, specifications and parts and so on.

I can only give you a small idea at the moment - for instance: When you look into the spareparts catalog, for body-parts - there will be photos of all items availeble - and on top splitviews (?) from spareparts catalogs - and tastefully photo's from the Torslunda factory and so on..

I have always loved pictures of a classic Volvo in od places - and take a look at "Damian"'s profile-photo - a 122S in Colerado Wauu!..

It just then came to me:
Why not set up a little competition? -and here goes:

- Picture must only show car and surroundings - No people and preferable not to much "noise"

- Picture must be in such qaulity, that I can use them on my site, (600x800-like, in + 72 resolution)

- I will state name and owner of the car if used on my site, and I must be allowed to use the picture on my site freely. (I will NOT retouche anything stupid or missuse)

- "Classic Volvo" is a 444/544, 120/130/220, 140/160 or P1800 in reasonable original condition (at least from the outside) -so please no half-finnished pick-up conversions - but if you have an 122S with custompaint -flames all over and chromed wheels - please then make sure the surroundings the photo was shot in, match!

Email freely to me - ALL photos with included name/adress and meet my ideas from above, will recieve a little gift in return - I'll setup the photos for a votation and the winner will recieve a giftcertificate to my webshop worth free shipment worldwide for 3 orders!

Hope this wasn't to long - and hope it sounds like a fun thing to participate in!

- Drive your lovely old brick to the LA-desert - shoot a photo with a nuclearbomb-test in background
- drive it to the foot of Mount Everest, shoot!
- park it next to the landed shuttle, Florida

Use the best of your imagination - go for that photo that wins!

Thank you all in advance - I'll keep you updated!

I'm very sorry Jim, but it's corrected now!

Your picture has been uploaded. Hope everything is in fine order now!

Thanks a lot for your picture - and yes it is what I'm looking for! Nice and "clean"

Do you have anything in British Columbia that defines British Columbia? It would really be nice if in time, the pictures on my site showed classic Volvo's in the world - Hope you understand what I mean! -put the Volvo in a place, where others haven't been and so.. or where the viewer haven't seen the Volvo before..

Backgrounds like that would really make me happy, look at Damiens contribution, that might help you understand what I really get excided about.

I'd love to send photos of my 1964 PV544 (I already live in the desert, so it's not a far drive to a good photo location!) but I need an e-mail address for you.

Thanks!

Steve

Dear Steve,
Since you are a member of brickboard - you also have access to my email adress!
(see the little envelope right next to my username)

And Steve..

Shot some rare ones!

-in desert with nothing but desert in background, maybe one of those "rolling bushes" as an effect (I'm danish, please excuse me, but you know those ones I know from the Roadrunner cartoon..)

Feel inspired! -take one lying on ground, upwards with a cliff in background

-next to a real "cowboy-cactus"

Hey!.. Find a rattlesnake too!..

:-)

I really look forward to your pictures!!

Thanks!
