CC Photo Contest Call for Votes

 

Anyone who's followed the thread on this year's ChopCult Photo Contest might empathize with me when I say it: selecting these top-ten finalists from the nearly 200 entries received wasn't easy. After Billdozer and I weighed our 20 or so initial favorites against the judging criteria one last time, these are the ten photographers whose images best captured the spirit of today's modern rider, in our opinion. If you disagree with some or all of our choices, please feel free to start your own photo contest in the main forum. It's not as easy some of you think.

To cast your vote for the grand prize winners, please go to the polling thread here.

When you visit the polling thread, simply check the box next to your favorite photographer and let the automagical software calculate the winners—no comments required. On December 1 we'll post the three images in another news feature and ship the three grand prize packages to each winner.

Thanks again to these generous sponsors for donating prizes for this contest:

No School Choppers

Lowbrow Customs

Old-Stf Motorcycles

Pangea Speed

Biltwell Inc.

 And of course, thanks to the nearly 200 CC readers who submitted images for the contest.

My favorite didn't make the cut and one of these is sporting a professional style copyright and watermark. Go figure.

Thank you, Topher. I naively assumed people would by stoked to see other photographers' work, but numerous comments proved once again, you can't please all the people all the time. Go figure. Please don't hold it against me if one of next week's CC features is a piece of fiction about a militant gay biker gang. Photo contests, it seems, are far too polarizing.

there are a few photos with great composition and content, but ultimately only one winner.

Commented on 11-18-2011 At 09:01 am
 
If you go to RockinRyan's original post you will notice that he mentions the fact that he is not a pro but watermarks his photos anyway to cut down on poachers. He's a good shooter but doesn't earn a living at it.

it bums me out that people are complaining.

since i have seen people complain about naked girlfriends, nothing really surprises me anymore.

this is a rad contest and all 10 of these pics are awesome. thanks bill and hallwade! don't let the complaints of a few stop you from doing more of this stuff.

i'm all about the kylefromcanton pic! i love it!

I'd like to echo what CRFyou said; all the pictures are great and I think it's awesome that ChopCult puts on contests such as these. How people can complain about a chance to get free stuff is beyond me.

as someone who's been a part of setting up what were supposed to be friendly competitions on a forum, i think the guys who set this up did awesome! i love all the pics that were put up. and hell, even if i didn't, i'd still vote for my favorite among those presented! kudos to our leaders, and kudos to all the picked pics! (i went with danisdead, when i have kids, they'll be in the garage at that age too ;) )

JPWilliams

I wasn't bitching or trying to hate. I know I have bad taste so my choice not making the cut was not a shock. I have enjoyed all the pictures and I love the contests that get put on here. I take a fair amount of pictures and I didn't have anything cool enough to even enter.

Art should be polarizing, because art should draw emotion; love, hate, happiness, anger, something.

Ya, all you fags that are bitching, go and consume some more cock instead of complaining.

Nosebleed

Several good ones and I dig the idea. This should be done 3-4 times per year, right?

For artistic merit and quality, OneSickRace has an amazing shot. I would frame that and hang it on the wall. Content is great too; makes me wish I was there.

Several of the others capture different things though including Cro, DanisDead and more. Congrats to all of the "finalists" on great shots, but more importantly great life experiences to share.

I dig them all but i think dan is dead should take the prize. Its not only a great picture but a true chopcult statement. Every tale ive ever heard about this sweet knucklehead chopper or panhead that i used to have ended with but then i had kids so i had to sell it. Screw that chop culters build there shit so there is no bank note to pay.
