first of all thanks to everybody who voted for my image and the congratulations, i'm honoured.

for this month theme i thought about travel, december does that to me every year. we are traveling in time, soon a new year, but for the theme i like to make it as broad as possible, so physical travel, mental travel, bags, trains, walking - in short everything that has to do with traveling somehow, it even gives room to abstract interpretations - stories of course are just as welcome as any kind of images as this is the only 'all disciplines' forum.
have fun creating.

Oh, looks very interesting theme of challenge !  Congrats again and thanks for this new challenge

December Challenge - TRAVEL

Thanks, koosievantutte, for providing us with a fascinating challenge!  I think everyone will be able to participate in this one.  I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with!

Let's run this until the last week of December, I will give you a day or so heads up and if anyone needs more time they can let me know.  You may enter an existing work if you like, but we would prefer to see a new work created for this challenge... it IS a challenge after all!  You may enter more than one work, but remember that in the voting, each entry will be judged separately.  Please, please, please put titles on your entries, especially if you have more than one.

Let the challenge begin!!!

Very good choice of challenge Koosie.
I want to travel away from all the raining, but how do I make an image of that? LOL

Great challenge theme koosievantutte! (and congrats). Here is an older image of mine, but a favorite because of the mulitlayered reflections. Airport Reflections

those reflections work very well in this photograph.

Thanks. 2 more entries from me, because I have the time and images. :) STAGES

...and #2 All Aboard!

Somewhere on your travel through life, someone crosses your way, while someone other seems to live parallell to you

this one is beautiful, gun.
@twopynts: fine images for the challenge, i especially like the one with the guy walking aling the train.

Thanks koosie ... and lovely, symbolic image Gun!

It's been a little slow in here, probably due to the holidays.  Let's get in any final entries you may have in the next few days, then close for voting on Saturday night, 12/29 at 23:59 Renderosity time.

3 pts- Airport reflections

Moving to bed again, can hardly keep my eyes open.  This is something quite unusual to me

sleep well, gun.

I will be totalling the votes tonight at nearly midnight Rosity time.  Final votes please!

This is always a difficult month for challenges.  Most of the software Forums are having their own contests and there are always a number of Renderosity contests as well, then add in the holidays, the long winter nights and the chimney that needs to be swept and that leaves very little free time.  Let's hope for better participation next time.  It was an interesting topic and had a lot of potential and the entries we got were all first rate.  Thanks to all those that took part.

Here's the count:

In fifth place, with 1 point:  TwoPynts' Stages

Tied for fourth place, with 3 points:  TwoPynts' All Aboard and gunsan's Tropical Vacation

In third place with 6 points:  koosievantutte's Hotel Room

In second place with 7 points:  TwoPynts' Airport Reflections

In first place with 10 points:  gunsan's Crossing

Everyone did a great job!  Congratulations to gunsan.  Gun, please choose a new challenge for a new year :)

I can't wait to see what's next.
