We are proud to announce that our DVD is now officially available to purchase!! A very special thank you to all of you who have pre-ordered!! Your DVD was shipped out today and should be in your hands very soon! The pre-order response was overwhelming! It was very touching to see so many pre-orders come in right from the very first night I announced it. How rewarding it is to see so many people interested in what I’ve produced and what I have to say!
So as a special thank you we are offering up the very first DVD hot off the press. The “Test” DVD. The prototype, as it were. I have signed it in silver pen to keep the aesthetics and it’s going to go to one lucky winner in the following contest! Yes, you’re going to have to work for it, if you want it. Isn’t that what I’ve been trying to say about this industry? If you want it you’re gonna’ have to work for it!
So here are the details:
You need to send me ONE photograph, not two or three or ten, but ONE photograph depicting one of the 4 elements: Earth, Air, Fire or Water. This is an assignment just like you’d get from a client. It can ONLY be a fashion or beauty image. It can be an image you already took or you can go out and shoot it and send it to me. But it must convey one of the above mentioned elements and it should be a strong image!!
Entering is Easy:
(CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED!)

November 30, 2011Very cool.
Actually you do want to have people follow you. Because you can’t DM someone on Twitter who doesn’t follow you, and if you don’t have any other contact info for the person, it’s really hard to correspond.
Most Twitter based contests require you to follow on Twitter – at least for the duration of the contest.
Cheers,
Jan

November 30, 2011It’s not a direct message, Jan, it’s just a simple public tweet at Melissa. So long as the tweet starts with @FPblog and includes the hashtag #FPDVDContest, you’ll be good to go.

@Jacques the submission is not through email it is on twitter, you must have a twitter account and you have to include “@fblog #fpdvdcontest” (without quotations) and then a link to your picture.

I’ve been following your blog for a while and it’s one on the favourites.
Just one tiny question. I’ve submitted one photo for air. Can I send one for fire and water as well?

December 7, 2011Hi David,
my comment is still waiting moderation from yesterday, so I don’t know if you got my submission or not. I am also pretty certain that my hashtags are not showing up in the twitter search and can’t be viewed unless someone is following me.. Not sure what to do.
This was my submission:
Orica77
December 7, 2011David, not sure mine went through as well. Can you please check and let me know.
Many thanks!
David Skyler
December 7, 2011@Geoff we where going to have it for Dec 7th but I forgot to specify a time so I edited the post to be Dec 7th at 8am EST so the competition will be closed in 1 hour. To give us time to select a winner today.
@Christina I didn’t receive your twitter post nor could I find the username you sent me but I do see the link you posted with the picture via facebook and I went ahead and included it in the submission
@Orica77 what is your twitter username so I can check?
