Money Shots Week Six - the winner

This week's entries were chosen by none other than Jay Sinclair. Were you lucky enough to come out on top? Find out for yourself.

Nice pics and congrats to the winners :)

good picks jay. i totally agree about the third one.. i dont think a shot of the gap-o-tron will be able to win, after already seeing so many of it.. the same goes for most crankworx shots… unless you had a media pass it would have been hard to get a winning angle. i like the lighting in number 4, alot. i dont like the shakiness of number two, although it is a new and unique shot.

yae, good choices! congrats to teh winners!

Great pics, couldn't agree more with the choices and the reasons behind them.

Agree with Gap O Tron comments.

So many good moves on that stunt, but so many pictures of them as well.

A killer shot of someone poaching it would be different though…no fans, no screen, just a setting sun and a no-namer dominating it. That would be a sweet Gap o Tron shot!

I really dig the number 2 shot. Nice picks jay.

best judgement yet. rung G definatly deserved a winners spot, i love his shots

You know…Google is oe of those cool things. Like if you highlight Damien Rosso and right click on it, its pretty easy to search for stuff that comes up.

Not saying he's broken any rules or anything…..but he's awfully close to DQ territory there.

I like the 2nd place shot better anyway.

I did Google him. He does meet the Rules. 5 Print campaigns was the cut off. There was no mention of web usage in the rules.

In reality he is not really near DQ territory.

But thanks for stirring the pot ;)

Yes we got your PM. As seen above, He meets the rules. He needs to have MORE than 5 print campaigns not just ONE shimano ad.

Selling photos on your website does not make you a pro. It makes you someone that sells pictures on your website. You for instance could do it, and people might buy something. It probably wouldn't be your only income though and thus you wouldn't be by OUR definition a pro shooter.

This weeks winner is a salesman by profession and likes to shoot. Yes he is good and yes he might move on to professional photography down the line, but right now, he meets our rules.
