Default VOTING: Bi-monthly photo contest: Planes, Trains & Rusty Automobiles

Looks like the submission thread for this theme got a little rusty too. Hey but we have to play with the hand were given and the 2 photo's submitted are both really pretty cool. So hey it's all good, I think we have ourselves a contest.

The current theme for this contest is "Planes, Trains and Rusty Automobiles"
I liked the concept of the rusty automobile, it had potential for a trick moment, that special shot. As we can see both of our members elected to submit stunning photos with awesome modes of the required transport for their subject matter.

So our job now is to elect a winner here, one who's picture grabs your imagination, really puts their Monte and a jet or locomotive harmoniously together in the same place. The picture that will be regarded as the finest and fittest for permanent display within the forums photo contest archival records. I now present to you for your judgment, your scrutiny, your keen eye for details our 2 submittals. Please take this moment and push the button for your favorite contest photo, oh don't say you don't enjoy seeing a loser, one of them has to be, tis the law. The question is who are we putting forward into the winners circle and who goes home with the grimace of defeat on his face? But they will be back with a bigger and better photograph the next time around. Like the US Army Gen. Patton said "I would not give a hoot in hell for someone who lost and laughed about it" get that killer look on, that fire in your cameras eye, come back a chewing bubble gum and kicking butt and wouldn't you know it your all out of bubble gum! Now lets go get em the next time...

All voting will end this Fri the 27th of Nov. midnight PST. In the event of a tie we will be posting a "Sudden Death" tie breaking one day only voting session the next day Sat. the 28th of Nov. And as before our new winner will be the one to choose our next contest topic. And that contest will start the following Monday and per usual your all cordially invited to participate through photo submissions or casting your vote for your favorite picture. Thanks in advance for your help here today voting...

Here are your choices ladies and gentlemen, now please do the deed...

Cool

Gosh I thought this would be an easy one to take a photo with the subject variety.
I couldn't find a Train that would be stopped long enough to take a good enough photo and the Weather was an issue also.
I did however find some Rusty Cars and one of them even had another Monte in the background.
