September Freebie Prize Draw now open!

I recently said that I was changing the rules for the September draw and posted what I thought was a fair balance. You lot agreed so now the draw is open.

To save you looking at the original post, here's the rules again.

As easy as...

The freebie prize draw is open to all blog or site owners who are followers of this blog and also my friend. There will be three winners each month (assuming I get enough participants).
  • to let me know you want in, you'll need to leave a comment on this announcement post
  • make a post on your own blog announcing my draw and linking both to my main site (http://www.highton-ridley.co.uk) and also to this announcement
    (url is http://www.highton-ridley.co.uk/blog/2009/09/september-freebie-prize-draw-now-open.html)
  • visit the galleries on my main site and find which image you'd like if you win
  • click the "Recommend it" button you'll find under the image (on the image page, not the thumbnails page)
By recommending in this way you'll be helping other followers and visitors. That's because the most recommended ones then bubble up to the top of the Your Top Choices gadget (see the right hand column).

Good Luck!

I've got a post on Picture This (http://www.photogra-me.blogspot.com) about your giveaway.

I've been a follower for quite awhile (as Pollyanna, but I just re-followed as myself), but I can't figure out how to do a friend request :( Perhaps you can help me with that - mmc at coveyphotography dot net

I recommended the Church Yard Sentinels and would love to have it hanging in my home :)

Ok - maybe I'm a little confused.

I follow your blog, sent you a friend request, recommended the Church Yard Sentinals (by clicking the recommend on your website) and I included your links in my blog post (http://photogra-me.blogspot.com/2009/09/fire-escape.html).

In case, I've got something wrong, I changed the blog entry to explicitly include your blog and website addresses (instead of hot links) and included that I recommend the Church Yard Sentinals.

I hope I've done everything right now. I think your work is beautiful.

Hi Mark, I also follow your blog (who could resist?), have recommended and left a comment on Constable Thatched Cottage and I've posted an entry on my blog about your contest with links to the rules and to your main site. Good luck with the POTY entry.
