Babies, bikers, and Segway riders—with so many ways to be on the move in Washington, we were glad to see that many entries in our transportation-themed photo contest went beyond the standard Metro shots. Now that our judges have whittled down the selection to five finalists, it’s up to you to pick the winner. See our favorites up close in our finalist’s gallery, then vote for your pick in the poll below. The photograph with the most votes as of noon on Tuesday, August 31, will appear in the October issue of The Washingtonian.
Please remember to play fair. The rules allot one vote per person, and we monitor the polls closely. If we catch voting irregularities for a particular photograph, it’ll be disqualified.
*To help keep this contest fair, we’ve elected to use an IP-address-based poll. This means that if you’re voting from an office or network setting, not everybody in that setting will be able to vote. We apologize for the inconvenience, but we hope you’ll encourage coworkers to vote from their home computers. >> Ready to take another shot? Check washingtonian.com/photocontest starting Wednesday, September 1, for details on our next contest.
