Re: Looking back at the camera

Just a quick update
I submitted that photo of teazle looking down a Pringles tube and just got an email saying they like the photo and sending me a voucher to spend on any of their goods.

Re: Looking back at the camera

I sometimes show photos on a site where they have contests. A photo has to be very good to win because there are many hundreds (sometimes thousands) of entries and it would be impossible to look at all of them and vote. Some people show photos I could never match in quality and content but I like to have a go. I think I've done OK if I get within the top 50 percent of the votes in any category.

One thing I have noticed is that others interested in photography per se like to see different ideas, such as the one used with your dog. It just adds a bit more dimensions to taking photos I suppose. Sometimes good to diversify from straight photography and try out various ideas. Well done for getting a voucher for yours.

Re: Looking back at the camera

i did win once before with a Mugler Vagas competition but that was years ago. This was just a random send in no competition but they seemed to like the idea

Re: Looking back at the camera

A voucher now, RS? Oh what dizzy heights you occupy these days.

Re: Looking back at the camera

The only fee I ever got was £10.00 from a photo magazine. They published a restored WW1 photo that I'd done. That was years ago.

I've had a couple of photos shown on ITV's weather forecast but no prizes for those.
