The Search For Cover Minis

1. Hi-Res: Make Sure that your photos are done in a high-resolution format and sized large. We are looking for a minimum of 8"x10" at 300dpi.

2. Lighting: Make sure your car is well-lit. Shadows are your enemy if they are obscuring your subject (your Mini!).

3. Background/Reflections: Make sure to look at your background. Is it really interesting or just a boring scene? Also, make sure that you have as few as possible reflected images on your car - a nice parking lot shot is one where your Mini is the only one in the lot (we don't want those "lesser" cars reflected all over your fantastic Mini).

4. Cropping: Don't do it. Let us decide how to crop your image. The above example could have vastly improved its chances if it was a complete shot.

5. Action Shots: Done easily, but safety is a must. If you decide to have one of your friends shoot your vehicle while its in a gnarly S-curve, make sure to be as safe as possible (we don't want pictures of a wreck!).

6. A Few Words: Go ahead and include a few words about your car - modifications you have made, trips you have taken, etc. Don't go overboard, but we would love to hear a few key elements about your favorite Mini!

7. Send It In: Email your submission or questions as soon as possible to Chris Knight mossmotors@gmail.com. We will also be posting your submissions in a gallery so that everyone can have their Mini seen by those in the community.
