Plurb couldnt have cheated, the reason the ground was blurred was because the graphics card wouldnt have been going fast enough to get the image looking crisp at that speed...if you get what i mean.
worthy winner Plurb, congrats.

Congrats Plurb on that winning shot!!
A well deserved win!

Going so fast that your video card can't keep up with you!!
It all came together.

To some of the others, the thread has been cleaned from some of the "sore losers" that had something negative to say.
remember the Oath?

1 of you was almost just banned from the monthly contest, I am not kidding!!
I will not let this happen like it did a few months back, (This goes for some of you newbies)

I will not tolerate it!!
Enjoy the scenery Plurb!!

Absolutely stunning shot!

I normally discard screenies if they have any blurs, but you used it to your advantage, fantastic job!

Didn't have the chance to vote this month, but hey, always the next contest.

Congrats again, enjoy your prize 8)

Plurb, you got lucky!!!!

Even though I voted for your pic, I did it despite the cursor showing on the panel. Like I said before, you used the crappy ground textures to your advantage.

Good job!!

Next time..... make sure to move the mouse out of the way!!!!

Great screenshot Plurb.

Very speedy effect you captured.

I didn't notice the cursor, and I know that the texture is blurred because that's how the textures look when you you are so close to the ground, it has nothing to do with the video card "keeping up".

Enjoy the prize and I hope to see your entries in future contests!
