Not everyone can fill a frame with mini's! (Can't help wondering what they are doing there in the U S of A. We drove ours from Ontario to Georgia in 1981 and got nothing but stares and snickers!). Sweet processing.

Yeah, Minis ROCK!! This is an awesome photo; great shooting.

I just bought an '06 MINI Cooper at the beginning of this year. They are so much fun to drive :-)

This was one of my favorites in the challenge too! An excellent use of fill the frame. Colors, lines, patterns. It is all there. This should have been top 10 in my opinion. I really liked this one alot! One spectacular photo.

Incidently, this was on 2nd favorite in the challenge. I demand a recount.

I like how the frame is filled here. Good colors, crisp lines and nothing is overshiny.

Really nice angles on this shot. Love the "little" pops of color.

i like the processing a lot, very nice colourful and the selective desat at half of the picture somehow works well.

Interesting shot, but the composition doesn't really work for me.

very nice (I'm a MINI lover). Don't see sense in the partial desaturation, the colors are so great.

I am trying to decide whether I like the faded saturation in this picture. The bright colors are really crisp and beautiful. The faded saturation gives it a unique look, but I love the colors so much I would love to see this fully colored.
