Announcing the Pay it Forward Holiday Giveaway

The reason Google+ is such a great place for photographers is because of the community that has developed here. No one person has made this place what it is, but instead it has taken all of us. In the spirit of the Holidays, I wanted to do one last giveaway this year that focused on Paying It Forward to other photographers here on Google+. I partnered with +fstop, a company that produces top of the line Camera packs and accessories to give away some great prizes worth over $600.

HOW TO ENTER
1. List 3 Google+ users that inspire you and tell them why they are an inspiration in this post. (*users must have less then 40k followers)
2. Please add +fstop to your circles as a thank you.

BONUS – You will get an extra chance to win if you mention something you have done this holiday season to make someone else’s life better in the same comment as above. This could be a donation to a local charity, spent time at a soup kitchen, helped out a friend. Please be honest and truthful. I fully believe in karma 🙂

* If you mention any of the power users here in Google+ (myself included) in your selections, you will be disqualified. Let photographers that have not been recognized have the stage.

Thats it…

* You do NOT have to add me to your circles
* You do NOT have to share this post (although you are welcome to)

HOW DO YOU WIN?

If you have completed the required steps, you are entered into the giveaway. Starting on December 21st, I will randomly select a winner every day through Christmas. Prizes will get bigger as the days go on.

* available to everyone…no location restrictions…
