Worldwide Photo Walk Update

Happy Monday everyone! Hope that you all had a very restful July 4th weekend. Wanted to point out a couple of things worth nothing here, so follow along!

Worldwide Photo Walk Update
With the Scott Kelby Worldwide Photo Walk less than two weeks away, I thought it a good idea to make a video letting you guys know how we are thinking of collecting all of the images to process for the prizes.

There are going to be 2 different ways to upload your image – through the Photo Walk website, or through an export plugin using Adobe Lightroom. In both cases, you’re going to need to be able to sign in to the Photo Walk website, and you’re going to need your city name written down somewhere. Because of that, it’s probably a good idea that you check both of these early, before you get to the walk. Click on the video above to go over what you’re going to need to do!

Contest Time
Go to the Contact page, select the Layers Blog drop-down, then fill in your name, email address and answer to this week’s following question. Remember, the contest will end Thursday 5PM,. and the winner will be announced Friday morning.

The Contest Question:This one is going to be a 2 Parter because of the enormity of the prize Part 1: In the Photo Walk video above, I show my city as an example. What was my Photo Walk City name? Part 2: Who wrote the review for the NIKKOR AF-S DX 35mm f/1.8G lens on the Layers Magazine website?

The Prize:

Moose Peterson was kind enough to donate to us a beautiful version of the picture above, printed by our friends over at Artistic Photo Canvas! Back in May of last year, Moose had talked about the details of this shot – with it taking him about 30 years to get! I tell you, looking into it, you almost feel like you want to walk right -into- the redwoods, and we could not be happier to be giving it to a wonderful home! We’ll also give you a subscription to Layers Magazine as well!!

I’m a big fan of artwork, and I believe all of you should have some in your homes.. this is very exciting for me, so I hope you all enjoy it as well. We’ll see you back here tomorrow morning!
