It’s a Major Award


Photo-A-Day #1941

Today was the Allison’s Family Reunion. It was a gathering of her grandparents, their children and grandchildren and great grandchildren. We’ve been having these sort of events at Aunt Jan’s house for the past few years and they are a lot of fun. This year was one of the best in my opinion. This year we got together and had a Steak Tip Recipe Competition. See, we can’t just get together to get together, there is always an element of game play or competition involved. I like that.

Competico’s Winter Holiday Photo Contest 2009

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Competico. All opinions are 100% mine.

You may have noticed that most of my photos this month so far have been Christmas in theme. I love Christmas and everything leading up to it. I also enjoy photographing the moments around the holiday. I have a ton of Holiday photos from over the years. I wonder if one of my photos is good enough to win a generous cash prize up to $50,000 in Competico’s Winter Holiday Photo Contest 2009.

This Holiday Photo Contest is open until January 12, 2010. However, you only have until tomorrow, Thursday December 17, 2009 9:00pm EST, to get a bonus opportunity. If you join the competition by tomorrow at 9:00pm you can submit TWO photos for the price of one. It is $100 to submit one photo into this competition, so getting two for that price is a nice way to double your chances in the competition.

Once your photo is submitted it becomes part of the voting pool. Right now there are only 6 photos in the pool and from the looks of them I think that maybe the photos I took on the 12th and 13th would be in the running. Well, the one from the 13th is the best so far so maybe just that one for now. I may have to look back to some from last year or from Eva’s first Christmas to find the best ones.

The way voting works is that all Competico users can vote for their favorite photos and then those votes along with the judges votes count towards choosing the winners. The top three winners share in the cash prize with the top winner getting 60% of the winnings, 2nd place getting 25% and 3rd place gets 15%.

So, what are you waiting for? Get out those photos of grandma trimming the tree with the grandkids. Did you capture your little rascal grabbing a department store Santa’s beard? How about the pets and kids all in Santa or elf hats? Maybe a living nativity scene. Don’t have any holiday photos?Go out and shoot some. Just get to it right away so you can submit two for the price of one by tomorrow night at 9:00pm.
