Working for Ford I couldnt help myself... come on Mustang 5.0!

The real inspiration is im finnaly putting out 5's (that one random tire image doesnt count). But i currently have two challenges in voting running Mid 5's and just spat another out. It will take some time to get my average there but My last 3 challenges it seems to be above. Im looking for those who shoot 5.0 or better and or carry that average.

Don't forget there are about 100 people in the free agents list currently looking for a team. I'm sure some of them would be glad to receive an invite.

I sent some invites but it seems im not able to invite more then i curently have slots? Would seem more efefctive to be able to send invites and then finalize their acceptance.

Either way yeah i sent out 6 invites (total of 7 one rejection so far i expect more!) But all in good time.

Well I'm looking to be on a team and my highest challenges so far range from 5.1 to 4.9. Though my average is lower I think I have potential. I've been a bit dormant for a while but, I just entered Culteral events and I'd definately get more involved if I knew others were counting on me.

I will go through the free agent pool tonight and see who looks like they got some good potential if you want. Sheryll sounds like a winner too if you wanna send her an invite.

Awesome. I'm so excited. I just put myself into the free agent pool because I didn't know if I needed to be there so you can invite me and also just in case you filled your team with other choices then I'd be there as a hopeful waiting for someone else to take a chance on me.

BTW I collect hotwheels and tried one out in a challenge once. I have thousands of recent photos but, haven't updloaded anything since February I think so I'll edit, upload and update my portfolio soon.

Did I say I was excited?... kidding.

Lol thats cool i invited you, your portfolio work looks great espcially the outdoor closeups and macro's. Thats Probly where you will excel at. Still trying to find my niche but it seems that macro studio work might be it. Im also keen on learning car photography. I suck at street photography and not in a position todo many landscapes for the moment.

EDIT - in fact i looked through it your landscapes and they are beautiful! Would have done well in challenges.

invite accepted and I can't wait to get started. Well it looks like we have the minimum that have accepted. When are we "official" and when do we get our team thread so we can start getting to know eachother better. I didn't see anything in the FAQ's that answered that.

Problem is theyre only accepting teams in multiples. So let say less then 48 teams are created we wont make it. 24, 48, 72 are the number. So far 24 are finalized so those 24 are garunteed in. We need to get finalized soon and hope that 48 teams get finalized. If not then i do believe everything after the first 24 get dropped.

SO far 36 teams exist 24 finalized.

I'll join,
Although I am not that familiar with it, I've scanned through a couple of threads.. also I haven't entered a challenge in quite some time.. figured this would give me more of a commitment to go shoot.

Well your work is good, i liek it crisp clean and clear. And seeing as how we have room for 3 and need 1 atleast. As long as your willing to go shoot and not hurt the team by sitting around.

I myself without a car have had trouble but i am taking up macro/studio macro/product photography and learning how to use public trans to get around.

No problem... I'll do my best to enter every challenge:)

Hey Nick looks like you'd be a great addition. You've got some awesome stuff but, like me you've been sittin back lately but I know for me this team is just what I need to give me a prod.

And Jeff I'm sure DPL will get enough for 48 because there are 96 free agents listed and if 24 of them were willing to be Captains then that's 24 teams right there just from the free agent list.

Dont have to go overboard if we can get a full team then it shouldnt be a problem. It seems both me an sheyrll have the same problem we take great pictures when we go places. And when we shoot for challenge entries we feel forced.

Atleast thats the impression i get from he work the stuff in her portfolio is beaitufl like this:

For the most part the logo needs to say team 5.0 but as i said i could help since i work for a ford dealer to put a Mustang in there. Many Mustangs prior to 1995 had 5.0 litre engines. The one in the temporary logo has a 5.0 modular and is a prototype race car.

I wouldnt mind including some Mustang 5.0 something or another in the lgogo ut for the sake of the team we need more team 5.0 and less mustang ya know. We can get rid of it for all i care im not actually a ford fan.

However it is one of our members favourite cars.....
