Begins THURSDAY!

Yep, you read right.

I am participating in a photoblog-off. You might be wondering what exactly a photoblog-off is. Well, that’s what I’m here for!

This is the competition of competitions. The holy grail of photographic war. The championship of contests. The shiznit of shiznits.  BRACE YOURSELVES.

THE RULES: For ten days only, Justin and I will embark on a journey. Separately. We each will take photographs using their respective cameras (no borrowed or stolen ones, k thanks). Photos will be ORIGINAL (No google image ripoffs – we’re journalists, remember? That’s p-l-a-g-i-a-r-i-s-m. Justin and I will post ONE photo to their blog with prominent viewing ability each day (for ten days). Readers are then asked to leave a comment on the photo they like/think is better then the opponent’s. The competitor with the most CUMULATIVE comments on their photos (written blogs don’t count), and the winner will be declared “International Photographer of The Millenum” in the category: “10 day domestic photo competitions between 2 people.” COMMENT WISELY.

THE CONTESTANTS:

Yours truly.
Shooting with: Canon EOS Rebel Xsi 12.4 Megapixel DSLR

Justin Kutner, author of http://alrightthatsenough.blogspot.com
Shooting with: Nikon Coolpix 7.1 Megapixel

Now, you might be thinking… “this fight seems quite unfair… Lauren is clearly at an advantage with her awesome camera and all her dedicated readers while Justin’s is not so good and he just started his blog”… do not fear. This will be a fair fight. But only if you make it – visit BOTH blogs to see BOTH photos BEFORE you leave your comment.

My photos will appear in the Headline section of my blog. Be sure to look there, and comment there!

Justin’s photos can be viewed at http://alrightthatsenough.blogspot.com

Employees, employers, friends and immediate (or not immediate) family members are not eligible. Immediate family includes only spouses, parents and children.
