pBasers, this 51st Show and Tell Competition was very hard to judge due to the amount of great pictures submitted.
After long consideration here are the results :

First I'd like to grant the special award for 'most of topic' pic.

Then it is time for the top 3

clyne came out number 3 with this picture very well showing speed. It is action packed, I like it a lot. Congratulations clyne.

Then comes number 2 :

jaac came out second with a picture I simply adore and wish I had made it myself. Showing speed, action packed and very much fun to watch.
Congratulations jaac, you came very, very close to number one but I am allowed only to pick one winner.

And the winner is :

:!: PPETALAS :!:

This picture came out as my number one. Not only does it show speed in a way I can almost feel it. Besides of that I like the composition, the way it was panned and the colors which are allmost watercolors.

Congratulations to you PPETALAS, the honour of judging contest 52 is entirely yours.

To everybody who made an entry, thank you. I enjoyed your work a lot, it was truly an honour to be your judge.

Kind regards to all,

Woodstock

Thanks for the honorable mention, but the honor is just being in a group here on Pbase like no other on the planet.

Well done, pep, but I do not envy your task. Due to some very thoughtful ideas, the Show and Tell Contest has lately become very entertaining and no doubt very difficult to judge. Good Luck with your theme selection and judging the next contest.
