I don’t have a Camera Ted!

I’ve got a chance to win a brand new 6 mp digital camera and photo printer from HP because they want some lucky bloggers to get a chance to test drive their products!

All I have to do is convince, Ted, from Pay per post as to why I deserve this great opportunity.

I really shouldn’t have to convince him- he should know by now how much I love Payperpost - just look at the videos I’ve made - I sing Payperpost songs in them! Who does that other than a blogger who just loves what he’s doing? I even made one for the “We want Randy” opportunity but didn’t get to post it here. You can find it on YouTube of course. I wasn’t gonna waste that singing opportunity, nope.

Ted if you give me one of the wonderful HP Photo gear packages that you have I’ll go to downtown Toronto, stand on the corner of Yonge and Dundas Square - dressed in blue, or green or purple or whatever you want, and tell everyone that walks by how great payperpost is. I will. Dare me!

Why do I need a camera? Well, for one, I don’t have one. I don’t even have a film camera. Do you know how stupid I feel when I go to parties or weddings and I don’t have a camera to use? It feels bad Ted, it feels really bad. I’m almost too ashamed to go out anymore ’cause my friends make fun of me for not having a camera. If I didn’t bring my guitar, I think they’d stop inviting me. It’s that bad, Ted, it’s really bad. You gotta help me man.

I really need to get myself into this new age of digital photography. Everyone is doing it except for me. I’m an outcast.

It’s a waste too that I don’t have a camera ’cause I’m starting a new site called Guitar Licks and I want to teach people how to play guitar over the net. If I had a camera I could take photo’s of the chord progressions as I talk about them, or if it has video - don’t they all have video these days? - I could even video tape short pieces and I’d be able to teach people how to play guitar with them. Isn’t that a great idea Ted? Don’t you want to help me do this? Just think, YOU could help me teach guitar to people from all over the world. But I don’t know … without your help I might just have to scrap that idea.

Oh Oh oh … I’ve got another idea. Toronto is a big city, it’s huge - and while there are a lot of normal people here, theres a lot of strange ones too … where do think I got the idea for Odd Planet from anyway? Watching all the strange people walk around this city, that’s how. Like the people that steal wheel chairs from the hospital that’s just down the street and have uh wheel chair drag races in front of our house. I could take photos of weird stuff like that and post it here. There’s no end to the strange stuff that I see in this city. I promise- if you give me a camera - I’ll fill this blog up with crazy photos that I’ve taken of all the strange and odd people I see.

Hey Ted? I seem to remember that you like beer. Am I right? If I am this nice cool one’s for you. This post was brought to you by HP.

Photography Corner

I just came across a photography site and forums and I thought I’d hook my readers up with the site info. The site is called Photography Corner and it has Resources for the photographer or hobbyist, forums where you can read up on photography product reviews or discuss the latest photography news, talk to others with similar interests and start meeting people with similar interests.

Members can post their photos in the photo galleries. There are some fantastic shots in the gallery. I’m impressed. I’m also impressed with the forums. There are several topics under which you can discuss the many aspects of photography from having your site or photos being viewed to the latest in photography news.

If you enjoy photography in any shape or form you should visit photography corner and see if you think it as useful to photographers as I do.
