3rd place
Light trails on M66 by stylo

jerseygurl: Great shot Stylo - you're very lucky you didn't get arrested lol - Good Luck in the contest!!!!!!!!!!!

LynEve: Congratulations on your placement in the contest :)

Nikoneer: Well, Chris, I'm not so sure this is a "breaking the rules" photo as far as the art and craft of photography is concerned, but only as the law is concerned. Whatever the case, I absolutely love light trail photos ( like this one, this one, and this one), and this one is exceptionally well done and shows a real talent. A copy is going in my monitor's wallpapers folder, thanks loads! If the c-index was still being used I'd give this one very high marks indeed.

Breaking the Rules by Dunstickin

rvdb: Congrats on your win.

Nikoneer: When the subject is a landscape, with the elements of the photo in the distance, wide spread, then the rule of thirds probably applies more often than not. Here the main subject is these three people on a bench, a subject you've centered. Since centering pairs well with symmetry, it stands to reason that the foreground, the grass, and the background, they sky, should be centered as well. I think it works well.

Broken Rules by Ramad

corngrowth: ---too much sky---

Think that this 'maritime pigeon' won't agree with you, Raj, because much sky is very helpful to it for a proper take-off, ☺ .
Good entry for the current contest however.
Good Luck with it, my friend!
