October freebie prize draw now open!
Make sure you read these—they're slightly different to September's (only slightly, though).
And that all shows in the final print, with deep, rich blacks and gorgeous tonal representation, on a textured surface that subtly enriches the contrast. (The archival-standard materials I use ensure a lifetime of 150years plus). Finally, I write the name and sign the margin of each print in pencil, same on the mount... all this taken together lets you know it's a work of art when you stand in front of it.
Winning is 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 another three winners this month (assuming I get at least three participants!)
Good Luck for October!
comments / critique / feedback always welcome :)
Stumble It!
Three signed, mounted prints up for grabs
Previous winners will tell you just how high quality these mounted prints are. I use heavy photo rag paper, specialised black and white inks and a professional printer, profiled specifically to black and white printing.And that all shows in the final print, with deep, rich blacks and gorgeous tonal representation, on a textured surface that subtly enriches the contrast.

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 another three winners this month (assuming I get at least three 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 encouraging your visitors to enter. Your post is to link 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/2009/10/october-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). If you've already done that previously, you won't be able to do it to the same image again. So instead, fill in the review gadget on the same page. And if you've done that before (thanks!), instead choose another to recommend. Don't worry, if you win, you'll get the chance to confirm which one you want then.
- finally—and this you don't have to do—spread the word about my work; share, digg, tweet, stumbleit!
Good Luck for October!

I'd love to enter again, but I'm sure that wouldn't be fair since I just won. I will be bragging on my blog that I won and can't wait to see my balloons.
Well, let's try!
The Grazing Pony Study is my fav!!! I recommended that (also liked the thatched cottage- but horses win out!)Will post a link on my blog!
I hope the winner is my friend, Ooglebloops...she really wants to win!
@Valerie - go on, have another go :) You wouldn't be the first to win more than once!
@Sylvia: I'm sure it'll be easier than you think! Remember, if in doubt, ask a donkey ;)
@Ooglebloops and Pat: I'm sure those vibes of hope and luck are echoing round the universe right now, ready to affect the Hat Of Wonder And Hope on the next draw!
Ok if the rules are I can be greedy then I'm in.
I missed the last one so all digits crossed for this one, lol!
Gail
I just found this - and I want to win too!
I recomended a couple of photos ... first a colour one (one I think Mum and Dad would love to get for Christmas ... then I can inherit it back again eventually - lol) ... and a mono one in case that is what we have to choose from ... although I could change my mind about what one I want by the time this gets drawn - lol
I have raved on about your contest/website in a rather long blog post, about the things I find when I get lost in cyberspace (more people are likely to see that post than one just about the contest - because the link will go onto a list on another site - because it is my letter L post for something called ABC Wednesday) ... but (unless I hit the wrong button/there is a glitch) it probably won't be online until Tuesday.
btw ... the post said we had to be your friend - does that mean following your blog, or do I need to add you to my google friends ... or am I supposed to have met you in person? LOL
@Valerie: yaaay!
@Gail: ..and binaries too! heehe...
@aykayem: Welcome :) Yes you can choose colour, if you really have to! I'm sure we're all looking forward to seeing your post on Tues.
Oo, oo, oo! Count me in again! I'll check back in with a link to my blog post and recommendation :)
Hi Melania - great to hear it! Good luck! (again!!)
I thought that winning last month, that it was only fair to let someone else take the prize Mark.
So im in but dont mind if you leave me out this month my friend.
I'm jumping in.
My selection is Caught by the surf.
Oooh how did I miss this one Mark..so sorry!! I want in!! I will post a link on my blogs!! Whoo hoo!!! Sarah
I shall be in this shortly. Still messing with my PC. Have you thought about facebook to expand your audience?
Check back on my blog tomorrow Oct. 17th around midnight... that should be 7:05 AM your time.
I'm in and have posted your links on my blog. Walking the Dogs...that's my fave this time around. In our neck of the woods it's starting to feel as cold as that photo looks....brrrr
I am always lurking around your site. Some day with your permission I would love to do one of your photos in graphite.
I would love to receive one of your prints. Your photography is so amazing.... It inspires me with my graphite pencils.
I now have your link advertised on my Blog and my Google home page.
I'm in.
Although the "Rose" is very beautiful, my top pick this month is "Stable Parlour". I've recommended it, but so far it isn't showing up that way yet. I may have to go back in and do it again.
Also, you can check out my post at http://photogra-me.blogspot.com/2009/10/burner.html telling my readers/viewers about your contest.
Well, let's try!
I would love to win one of your beautiful photos!!! they are gorgeous!! The one with all the snow covering the street reminds me when I was little and me and siblings would walk to the store in all our big puffy snow outfits in the middle of the carless snow covered streets!
I added links!! Whoo hoo!!
Hi Mark,
Of course I'll participate again! I hope you'll like my announcement post. :)
