Harnu 0 Posted March 15, 2004 I'd like to congratulate and thank all those who contributed to this competition: the judges, entrants, finalists, moderators, and all combat photographers in the community for supporting and making this popular and possible. All together 612 was the final amount of the accumulative votes. Â But without further ado, the winners are: Natural : A close race, but Acecombat takes the gold with his picture of a helo gaurded by spetznatz in the mist Edited : Clearly winning, Doc. Zaius beat out his competitors with a finely taken picture of a Downed Puma Humour : In a landslide giving Al flashbacks , Sole wins with a great picture of Escape Mult-Player : In another close race, iNeo takes took the prize while trying to land a Cessna in the cargo section Miscellaneous : And in a poll with some very diverse voting, Mr. Burns takes the prize with a beatiful, early shot in Northern Nogova And to the victors go the spoils, so here is a badge for your signature signifying you've won. And to anyone thinking of putting that in their sig and didn't win, be forewarned, you may just regret it Once again, congratulations! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thirtyg 0 Posted March 15, 2004 Congrats to everyone that won their respective sections. The pictures were beautiful. As Major Fubar said, thanks to Harnu also for his work organising everything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Acecombat 0 Posted March 15, 2004 Gee thanks for voting for me everyone who did The whole thing was pretty good even though i feel it wasnt that much well publicized since the people who come here only voted but then again nice job for the organizers to put some time and effort in this and to the judges. All the PICS that made it to the finals were worthy of winning it was all a matter of personal liking and one vote so in a way everyone won i guess. Nice pic too harnu Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Acecombat 0 Posted March 15, 2004 Oh, look how nice the badge fits next to my original sig pic  Maybe its because the forum mods have enforced the 100pix sig limit on height Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Doc. Zaius 0 Posted March 15, 2004 As a relative new-comer to the community with a decidely subdued entry, I was quite suprised to recieve so many votes - A huge thank-you to everyone who voted for my entry, and to Operation Frenchpoint for providing me with such a wonderful muse. Also, I tip my hat to Harnu for contributing so much to Operation Flashpoint Combat Photography. Now let's all get drunk and play ping-pong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bn880 5 Posted March 15, 2004 Congratulations to the winners and to all who contributed pictures! I was amazed at some of the pics taken, especially natural section, showing those to people who don't play OFP too often makes them say "that's not OFP!" Now, start preparing for next year.

Sole 0 Posted March 15, 2004 Bad idea, it's taken almost 3 months allready to get the current one done thumbs up for Harnu & co for setting up the contest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A FULL Year That seems a bit too long how about making this a bimonthly or trimonthly contest I would seriously propose to make this a biannual or triannual event. Completely amazing pics are in the CP thread every day, so even that is too little. I hadn't started CPing for this comp, but resta assured that next time I'll blow you away.

Baphomet 0 Posted March 16, 2004 Cheers! Very nice shots all of them. I especially like this one. Ye gods. The drawdistance on that is amazing. I also like the downed puma. Nice use of effects to create a sort of weathered photo look to it. It also looks too real. If only ofp ran decently on that resolution. (If I had a cray or something similar..) Can anyone tell me exactly where that is on the nogova map? Coords maybe? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
