Happy (Canadian) Thanksgiving

October 12th, 2009

HappyThanksgiving

It’s Monday. We’re still eating Turkey up here. I don’t have pictures of turkey, so you get two pigeons instead. Sorry. Times are tight. :-)

Tomorrow I’ll discuss the images I showed in the slideshow I posted on Friday, today I’m busy being thankful. But I’ve got suggestions for you if you’re bored:

1. Go back up your hard-drives. Don’t have a decent back-up solution? Make sure you enter the Drobo Giveway by leaving a comment on last Wednesday’s post HERE.

2. Go read a good book. Don’t have one? Try one of the books recommended in this post or the comments that follow it.

3. Calibrate your monitor. It’s been a while, hasn’t it?

4. Get your hands on one, or both of my eBooks- TEN and TEN MORE – available in the Pixelated Image Bookstore HERE. – Heck, if you use the coupon code: TURKEY you can get them for 50% off until my turkey has digested – and I’m giving that to the end of tomorrow (October 13) It’s practically a TWO-FER-ONE! :-)

5. Here’s the crazy one. I put it in here just for fun. Go make some photographs. I know, crazy right? :-)

Happy Thanksgiving, folks.

    Happy Thanksgiving. I’ve just taken up your TURKEY offer and although I’ve only had time for a quick scan, I know I’ve paid quite a lot more for other entire books that offer quite a lot less in the way of practical advice.
    Thank you.

    I already have number 5 planned. I will be taking some portraits of my nephew at the park before the feast begins.

    May your turkey coma be a short one.

    David,

    Thank you. You can call me a TURKEY any time if I can get great photo advice for half price!

    Thanks so much. This price discount made it so easy to give them a try. Smart move. Low price, volume sales, very little overhead. I have been using the same technique with print sales. Matted prints always far under $100 and people have no problem makingthe purchase with out lots of cautious thought. I sell far more prints and make much more money this way than when I sold prints for well more than $100. Digial makes all of this possible. Thanks for extending this paradigm.

    Just the incentive I needed to get the ebooks I have been wanting. They are perfect little morsels of inspiration and reminders. Thanks, David!

    Thank you so much for that wonderful gift of a discount. $5 might not be much for everyone but it is for me. I loved your Within the Frame and was eager to read anything else you put out. That discount brought me to purchase these two e-books and I eagerly anticipate Vision Mongers. Thanks for taking the time to write from the creative vantage point primarily. I love how-to books but they are much easier to come by. Thanks again.

    Is Turkey supposed to work for Drawing the Eye?
    I got it first anyway, love the work you do, and the support you are providing to the ‘community’. Also, just handed in 3 assignments this week so I need to to freshen up my mind. Went shooting for 2 hours after going to uni yesterday and my legs are sore so I’m being lazy at home right now..

    More shooting on the weekend!
