Prize

... And finally they have arrived! Hurrah!

My long awaited Giotto Tripod and Lowepro Bag turned up yesterday and, when I finally managed to work out how to get into the bag and how the tripod fitted together, I was very happy indeed. Not that I wasn't before, I was just a little perplexed at how two simple devices could be so awkward to operate!

Thanks to PP for their most excellent decision, their sponsor for their most generous gifts and my lovely family for their inspiration and being the best prize of all...

Etiquette

Last month I was fortunate enough to win 'Letter of the Month' in Practical Photography magazine. In addition to my letter they also printed my photograph. I was very pleased. However, the freebies which I was promised, a Lowepro bag and Giotto tripod, have still not arrived, and I'm not too sure on the etiquette of chasing up complimentary awards from magazines...

*Update: After sending a very polite email to the magazine I have been told that the sponsors will be sending out my prize this week, apparently they were having problems with their courier... Fingers crossed!
