James Bond Lifestyle Competition-WINNERS ANNOUNCED in post #184

SiCo

Lights, camera, action! Absolutely James Bond and The Zaritsky Archive bring you a photo contest where YOU are the star. Simply submit a picture or two on the associated thread of you in Bond clothes, in a Bond situation or living the Bond lifestyle.

If you haven't done so already read the full details in the Absolutely James Bond article.

First prize is Fernando Guillén Cuervo's screen used shirt from Quantum of Solace. Fernado was the Colonel of Police that betrays Mathis and Bond.




Why should you do this?

For the prizes of course! Companies that support the Bond lifestyle have donated some wonderful prizes that will certainly enhance anyone’s collection. A small panel of judges will be judging your pictures throughout the contest. For full details on the great prizes

If you want to increase your likelihood of winning simply combine as many components into the pictures themselves. For example you in a Sunspel shirt is good but you in a Sunspel shirt by an Aston Martin is better!

As an example see our very own Quartermaster The Mantis:

As a quick example these are a couple of images of David (The Mantis) uploaded to the site so you can see what to expect.





You can click on the thumbnail images to view the larger versions. So what are you waiting for, if you have any questions ask here and David or myself will help if we can.

Once the competition has closed we will launch a poll of the best entries so you can play along with the judges and decide your winners, the forum poll will be purely for fun.

Good luck to everyone, get thinking and get photographing. :007)

walther p99

The Bond Experience

Since I am co hosting the contest I cannot be in it. But I expect everyone else to enter! We just thought that this would be fun.

great stuff

It's a great contest! I'm looking forward to seeing more entrants. I'd enter myself, but unless there's a scene where James Bond is sitting behind my desk at work or doing chores around my house, I wouldn't have much chance!

My recommendation is that AJB bring this competition up every once in a while...If I ever make it back to London or the Bahamas, I might be able to snap a pic or two for future contests!

Hello Fellow Bondians,

Please accept this as my formal entry for the contest.

This shot is from "Live and Let Die" and is from the beginning of the film, where Agent Hamilton (on loan to the Americans) is investigating in New Orleans.

A little about the photo...

I happened to be in NOLA last year and remembered it was a Bond location. I had no photos or DVD's to go by, only memory. I found the correct street and tried to recreate the shot from memory. I took a couple hundred pics and hoped that some would match in some way. This photo matches the best of all.

So without further adieu...








Thank you for your consideration!

James Bond

P.S. I added the hat in post.

texas007

That is amazing - WOW - hardly any change on the scene - the angle was perfect.
Could you please tell us the cross streets so we could all visit one day?
Thanks

Hello gentlemen,

First time saying anything here.
So I think I’m bit nervous,
but I know I am among bond fans and that I can relate to.
Great pictures. I want to submit a couple of my own…
cheers

Hawaiian shirt with a breeze.



I had to build up courage to get into a LaPerla in front of a camera. (and had to get my girlfriend to approve it)



Thank you everyone

Looking forward in making new acquaintances here.
best regards

Thank you.
Both in Massachusetts, USA.

GREAT shots...very inspired!

apologies dave, just a little banter, nothing offensive meant.

The Bond Experience

I know, and I am probably just being sensative because I know it is VERY hard for many people to post pictures of themselves because, let's face it, it's out of character. And posting yourself in a Bond scenario is going out on a limb to the world since this is the internet.

It's not fun when it's at the expense of others. Didn't your parents ever teach you that if you have nothing nice to say, don't say nothing at all?

For those of you who have posted pictures, great job and good luck!:)

SORRY DAD, shakes head. I did not make fun of anyone else apart from the guy in shorts, if he cant take a joke( and im sure he can) he shouldnt have posted the pic, look at all the fun daniel craig had made of him, i bet he didnt cry about it or get his dad to tell people off about it AS I SAID WAS NOT MAKING FUN OUT OF COMP PICS, just a lil fun with 007brucewayne no harm intended, now if he has a problem i will apologise, but untill then BUT OUT

I'm just impressed that 007BruceWayne can actually wear the La Perla and look good when 99.9% of us couldn't get them past our knees! Screw DC's diet; what's his? )

That really shows us all your maturity level. What are you, ten years old? Grow up! To say that he shouldn't have posted the picture if he couldn't take a joke is ridiculous and ignorant on your part. The idea here was for people to post pictures of themselves for purely competitive reasons, not for people to ridicule them. Why don't you post some pictures of yourself so we can all have some fun too?
