Win your photos on canvas!

previous article: next article:

As far as presenting photographs goes, you can’t get much more unique than having it professionally transferred onto proper artists’ canvas. To some, it could be prohibitively expensive, but Tocco are currently running a competition where, if you win, you can get your photo printed completely for free!

Competition imageTo win, all you need to do is to browse Tocco’s website and find the image to the right.

Then send an email with the image reference, your name and address to offers@toccoinside.co.uk. Finally, keep your fingers crossed :) Hurry up, though because All correct entries will be entered into a prize draw and the winning entry picked at random on 30th June 2006, so deadline is quite short.

Even if you don’t win, it’s worth giving these guys a once-over, because the quality of canvas printing is quite something to behold.

Good luck!

Money made from this advert will be invested in prime lenses.

Wait I don’t get it, I found the image in like less than 5 secs of browsing.

Me too, maybe I’m missing something? :D

Finding the picture is like buying a ticket to a raffle – which is essentially what this is which is why it was probably very easy to find. Classic advertising trick.

Chucked an entry in for myself regardless. It’d be nice to get something printed.

I get that Ren but the thing is if its a advert tactic it really doesn’t make sense that whitin 5 seconds of looking you’re done. You’d think at least a minute or so of browsing would be wanted so the person at least has the feel or content of the site. I don’t even know what the hell they are selling and don’t want to.

However you will be Emailing somewhat personal info to them… whats the privacy policy on that eh?

So, the 550D and the 50D cost practically the same, and have different advantages. Which one would you buy?

My books

Macro Photography Photo Workshop

Macro Photography Photo Workshop by Haje Jan Kamps My day job, if it can be called that, is being a writer. I've got one book out there so far and it's awesome, so go ahead and buy a copy! It's available from Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk, and most decent-sized bookshops, too!

To find out more, check out this post! If you want to know more about the 'being a writer' thing, check this site out.

Put another dime in the jukebox

Put another dime in the jukebox In front of you, five hyperactive men with guitars, drums, and microphones. Behind you, five thousand fans. In your hands, a camera... You're going to need more than just a little bit of good luck to pull this one off. That's where this book comes in.

With nearly a hundred fantastic gig photos, and a ton of info about how to get involved in taking photos like this yourself, you can't go wrong. Buy this book. Grab your camera. Good luck.

Street Photography: London

Street Photography: London Take a Canon EOS 450D. Attach a Canon 50mm f/1.4 lens. Hit the streets of London. See what happens.

Sounds simple - but the results are anything but. Moving, intense, and personal, Street Photography: London is a great collection of the people of London, their passions, and their dreams. Look for yourself!

About

This site is all about learning more about photography, from the incredibly insightful (rarely) to the dreadfully mundane (also, hopefully rarely) via just about everything in between.

If this website seems a little whimsical and random, then that's because the author of this blog, who for the occasion is confusing himself by writing about himself in the third person, is slightly whimsical and random himself.

Enjoy!
