The PVS pics aren't up yet but this is the company that took them.
Keep an eye on the site for when PVS ones are up, I forgot to get mine at the show so will be ordering it

I'm still amazed that people pay money for this crap. It's a completely uninteresting photo of your car, usually dirty, on an uninteresting road, usually with crap in the background.
Quite why that is worth money I'm not clear.

You do make a good point to be fair, I got the one at Trax last year so thought might as well get the PVS one

If it were a good photo then perhaps. I've bought photographs in the past, but these are nothing special at all.
Buying photography is about paying for the skill, expertise and forethought that a photographer has put in to being where they are and doing the right thing at the right time.
Not hanging around by the gate in auto mode point and shooting at every car that drives past. That is not a good photo and not worthy of purchase.

I've got to agree with Ian on this one, 3 times I've been to PVS and I've had 3 shit photos of my car taken on the way in, all they ever got out of me for it was a wave

It makes a mockery of everyone who actually spends time walking miles, composing the shot and then post-processing it to ensure it's right.

i bought this one as I was very drunk and everyone was wetting themselves when we saw it used as a demo pic:

£15 I think it was, never would have normally bought one but I edited it a bit and made it into a large canvas:

I suppose you could argue that they at least captured the moment.
