Le Mans racer. Taken with a Galaxy Note 4.

This one's pretty self-explanatory — we're looking for the best picture you can take this week that represents the word "fast." There are a thousand different ways you can go with this one, so we're hoping to see some creative shots that set you apart from the crowd. We can't wait to see what you come up with.

We're going to be picking out two winners this week, each of whom will get a Samsung 6000mAh Portable Battery Pack!

Entering is easy. Just drop your entry in a post below. Tell us what Android you used to get the picture, and any back story you want to add to it. We'll pick a winner Tuesday (October 28) night at 11:59 PM ET, and announce them on the blog with next Wednesday's contest.

  • Pictures must be taken with an Android device
  • Pictures must be uploaded to the contest thread. I'm not running all over the Internet to track them down.
  • You have to tell us what device you used to take the picture, and any special software you might have used. Editing your pictures is fine — this is art.
  • Feel free to add a little back story — we want to know how the picture came to be.
  • You must have used a valid email address to register here at AC, so I know how to contact the winner.
  • Only one entry per week per person.

Good luck, everyone!
 
To me it's amazing how fast the seasons change... and what most people miss while just walking around a small lake near work.

Picture taken on a Moto X (2014). No editing was needed or done.

My son on a swing. Taken with my Galaxy S5 using "shot and more" mode which created this cool panning shot. No further editing or post processing.

Here is my entry taken with a Galaxy Note 2. No editing done. This is my 1964 SS Convertible's engine compartment. She is a fast one Love those old cars!!!!
 
Taken with my Samsung Galaxy Note 3

Pagani Zonda F in San Francisco Pier 32. There's less than 10 of these in the world. Pagani brought the car over to USA to tour couple autoshows.

In front of the Pagani is a BMW M1. Also a very rare one in USA.

This should be fast enough with the backdrop of Bay Bridge.

Slight edit w/ Snapseed.

Oddly enough, I was taking pics of my new BlackBerry Passport on my Nexus 5 and one of the pics I had showing on the device was interstate signs.. my Passport is fast.. intertsates are fast, so here I am. Now don't kill me cause I'm showing off a BlackBerry. :P

I had a tough choice and couldn't decide which one to pick. So I decided to do both so YOU can take your pick. This Ferrari belongs to a Mexican celebrity that stayed in the hotel I work at, perfect example of fast. Just a few edits with Snapseed and PicArt.PicsArt_1414010314066.jpgPicsArt_1414010399201.jpg

These may only be models, but the real Ferrari FXX (in the middle) has a top speed of 214 mph and accelerates from 0-60 mph in 2.44s. That's definitely fast. This photo was taken in lens blur mode on my nexus 4, and edited in the stock editing app.

This Gulfstream G650 was sitting on the ramp at the local airport .... Doesn't get much faster than this. Her max speed is Mach .0925! .... Taken with a GS5 with HDR and enhanced through Google + Photos.
 
Quite an old photo but if I remember correct this photo was taken with a Galaxy S4 using the drama mode[?]. It was later edited using Camera ZOOM FX Premium. The quick story behind the photo is that I love my car and one of my favorite activities with my car is washing it, driving it around, and as pictured here: autoslalom/autox/autocross.

The photo was taken by me and the car was being driven by my good friend / co-driver.
