September Giveaway – CS5 MASTER COLLECTION!
September 2nd, 2010
This is the big one folks. At the end of the month-ish I am going to ask my manager, Corwin, to do a draw while I am in Asia. That draw will be a random draw of names from the comments on this post. And that winner will get a FULL Adobe Creative Suite 5 MASTER COLLECTION! That’s a $2600 piece of software, y’all. It’s not a demo, it’s the real thing, and when we do the draw we’ll ask your preference of Mac or PC and have the Adobe Mothership send this straight to you.
The fine print? You have to leave a comment, and in the right places leave your name and email address. For bonus points you can tell people about the amazing photography education resources available for the ridiculously low price of $5 over at the Craft & Vision website, but that’s more for the keeners who do this kind of thing because they like to, not because they have to. Leave your name once, tell the world, that’s all. It’s an honour system thing. Well, the “tell the world” part is. The “leave your name and email address” part is actual pretty mandatory.
So there you have it. Huge thanks to Adobe for sharing the love with this community with no strings attached.
Update – The giveaway is now closed. Winner to be announced ASAP.
That sounds great!! Love your pictures, eBooks and the way you educate. I’m thinking about downloading your creativelive sessions as well.
Greetings,
Niek.
This is awesome. Thanks again David!

The only eBook I’ve read so far is “Drawing the Eye” and I found it to be quite an enjoyable read. Love the design!
Wow, am I the first one to comment really?
I justed wanted to tell that I find your articles and photography very inspiring and helpful, thanks a lot for that!
Best regards,
David
So not only do you give us the gift of your knowledge and wisdom but you give away free software as well?
Well I’m glad to be part of this great community here. Keep up the great work and I shall be keeping my fingers crossed my name is picked !
Ah, bad luck, not the first one after all
While typing I missed my chance 
Anyway, the winner will be picked randomly, so I’ll keep hoping!
This is very generous!
By the way, just got myself a copy of Voice & Vision, it’s great and really practical. Keep doing what you do!!
Wow! Great!
Love your books David, I’ve bought many of them, both in print and the e-books. Very inspiring stuff.

Greetings and keep up the good work!

Great thing!
This is going to go orbital real quick. I’m assuming the ‘no strings’ means the offer is available outside Continental America but anyway I am already pointing people to the Craft & Vision ebooks as the best material I know for colleagues and friends who want to take their photography beyond first base without spending a fortune.
Enjoy LD2010 and the other trips
Wow what an incredible giveaway! Count me among those with fingers crossed.
mine mine mine !!!
I’m feeling lucky!
I’ve only read your “Vision is Better” so far, but I think I’m going for the others too. And yes, count me in for this contest!
Wow – that’s a nice draw. I’m in
Yay! very nice idea there. I’m telling the world indeed.

Hi, very nice draw…i’m crossing my fingers!!!

This is a great price for a contest… put my name in the hat
Jesper

Wow! You have some excellent eBooks David and your keynote at the Maui Photo Festival was inspiring! Looking forward to seeing you again in 2011.
I’m finding the Craft & Vision ebooks on black and white helpful. B&W is my favorite medium and always looking to improve on my conversions. Having the series on my iPad makes it a useful tool.

I’m doing all my recommending of Craft & Vision on a word of mouth basis, so I’ll just go with the flow here and merely say: Wow
Hey! The CreativeLive was amazing. And the ebooks are next on the list!
Fingers crossed!
This is so cool, i can’t wait to open that Master Suite box!
The big one indeed!! I love the Craft & Vision ebooks. Thanks for all you do for the photographic community.
This is a VERY generous give away. I do highly recommend the ebooks. Great bang for the buck.
CS5! For free?! That’s the one for me, count me in. I’ve got all your ebooks and they ROCK! Great inspiration and vision. Thanks David, nice one.
The ebooks are great, keep’em coming !
Hi
Well that’s a nice thing to do.
You taught me that photography is not about gear or software, but this does look pretty nice, so I’m in
Well, the ebooks are great … I’ve got most of them and highly recommend them for an affordable piece of inspiration, with plenty of good information thrown in for free
Wish me luck in the competition!
I think you will get a huge number of comments – this post even managed to get me to post !
Have got 2 or 3 of your books and couple of e-books too – they are great, really enjoying how you write and express yourself.
David, Thanks for all that you do, I ‘ve enjoyed reading you blog very much the last several years.
Chris
Wow, that’s great! I’m telling the world… just not about this giveaway.
Hey David, is the give away of CS5 also valid for Europe? I hope so.
And 9 sep is the new ebook about your trip to Iceland coming, right? Looking forward to it!
I bought most of your books and many of the Craft & Vision ebooks. I really enjoy your exceptional blog and want to thank you! Keep up the good work!
Enjoy the trip to Asia and thanks for the great giveaway opportunity!
What a great prize giveaway! Thank you for being an inspiration to me and many others. Your eBooks has helped bring vision to many peoples photography. Thank you!
I was looking at this last night, I think because subconsciously I thought about it for the rest of the day after David tweeted about it… haha
A very generous offer indeed. Caught you on CreativeLive and was very inspired. Thank you
Never won anything – except those great $4 e-books (I always jump on the early buyer discount). Now’s my time.
Thanks.
Woo hoo! Fun fun fun.
Daaaaaaaaaaaaaang! End of the month-ish would be my birthday.
I’ve pointed friends at your ebooks, already – excellent resources, convenient!
Thank you!
I love your blog and your images!
Great initiative! Maybe I’m lucky…
Thanks a lot for your inspiring books. Really enjoyed “Within the frame” and have just started reading “Vision&Voice”… Keep up the great work…
Fantastic prize … awesome Blog. Thanks for the opportunity!
Awesome! I want CS5.
I do no need a gift to tell people about your books. I have told everybody already.
But as you already do it I am definitely in.
Oo… Maybe then I’d finally start using something other than LR to edit my pictures.
Thank you David for your inspiration.
So far read only Drawing the Eye, but wishlist contains The Inspired Eye series and Magic of B&W. As soon as I have time for it. Thanks for sharing, and enjoy Asia.
Amazing giveaway…staying hopeful.
Thanks David and Adobe. I look forward to using this.
You’re definitely one of the most encouraging photographers out there David. The prizes are just gravy. You’re the substance that keeps people inspired to make images. Great site and great educational content. Thanks.
Great prize!!!
Looking forward to seeing images from your trip!
Have a wonderful time!
What a great and kind thing to do. I am half way through Visionmongers and I plan to go back through it again as soon as I finish. It has been a great book.
tim at timskipperphotography.com
What a great opportunity. Thanks.
How about a “League of Crafty Visionaries” (or should it be “Visionary Crafters”) – a social network for all your registered Craft & Vision customers?
Thanks for keeping us informed, entertained and excited!
I have enjoyed all your books!!
The minibook format is a perfect way for me to read end develop my skills. Your approach to focus on the vision and the way you explain and put a method in place challenge me a lot. My performance and results is getting much better. Big thanks!
Nice prize set to give away. Keep up the good work.
I have bought your first book and it changed my way of taking photographs. Previously I just shot pictures. But now I have started thinking about my vision. Your inspiration has helped me to take better pictures.
Thank you David.
David you and Adobe are too generous. Good luck to all who enter.
Wow, what a great give away. You share more in your e-books than one could ever get from how-to pubs. I have all but one and even bought one of them twice (was downloaded to a different computer).
I like your approach to photography and photo-editing. I’ve read many photography books and I’ve found your writing fits my approach like a hand in glove. It’s like talking with a more knowledgeable friend about things photographic.
Sweet!
Thank you for your generous offer!
Have a great trip!
I haven’t read any of the books, but I’ve followed your blog for quite a while and I’ve always found interesting stuff to read here! As for the prize, great idea and very nice of Adobe to pitch in!
Thanks David for this amazing giveaway !
I”ve bought all your books so far and can’t wait for new ones. I’ve learned so much with you. Keep going the excellent work !
Cheers from Belgium
Crazy giveaway! Really looking forward to the upcoming ebook from Iceland on Craft&Vision!
Sweet!
Thank you for your generous offer!
Have a great trip!
Awesome give away.
I’ve been following the blog for some time now. I love your openness about your techniques.
David, Thanks for the great books. Your writing helps to re-charge my batteries and freshen my love of photography when I hit the occasional low.
Wow, love the prize. Really enjoyed your pictures of Iceland.
Wow, that’s nice!
Pity the ebooks aren’t kindle format
What a great giveaway! How nice of you and Adobe to provide this opportunity!
We’ll appreciate this giveaway! We’ve bought most of the e-books from Vision & Craft, and I have all your books as well.
We’ll use it for Good!
Heber Vega.
Like others have said, I sure hope this extends to people in Europe.
Have a safe trip David
EVERYTHING! for $64? That’s evry ebook on the site! That is great!

Exciting stuff and a very kind offer, David. Have a safe and wonderful trip in Asia!

OMG! Thanks David and Adobe! Count me in please!
Great prize!
Awesome software!
Wow what an awesome prize. I love Craft and Vision products and I enjoy your blog. Thanks for the opportunity to win this product. I will tweet and put this on my facebook. Thanks again.
The whole thing? Everything? That is HUGE! I shouldn’t (because it will reduce the odds of me winning) but I’ll post a link from my blog.
I’ve just read the Vision in Motion e-book and it is excellent!
Attended your webinar yesterday – great job; very inspirational. Just ordered “Vision & Voice: Refining Your Vision in Adobe Photoshop Lightroom”.
Thanks for providing such great material (I am reading Within the Frame, and have watched all of the podcast episodes at least once).
first time shipping a CS5 Version to Germany?
Do it – I will be happy!
Wow! What a great giveaway! You are a generous person David – with your knowledge which has been helping me a lot as well as free software!! May a deserving person get the fabulous gift!
Keep up the good work, David!
Wow, that’s a big giveaway indeed! Thanks
I Recently finished WTF and absolutely loved it 
Amazing giveaway! One would have to buy a new computer to hold that monster. I and many others have been inspired by your great writing.
Count me in!
Wow, what a giveaway. I hope you have a wonderful time in Asia. I’m looking forward to all you have to share from your trip there.
Love your books, e-books , blog, and, most importantly, your images. Thanks!
What a great prize to offer! Thank you! And I read the site religiously. Keep at it!
I hope you have a wonderful trip to Asia! Thank you for your generosity. I am learning so much from you, from your E-Books and blog. Thank you!!!!
Come to papa! BTW to raise my chances, I own Chasing reflections and Safari. Love them both!
It is already great to read your blog – without any prizes! However having such extras – wow!
THX
Great contest, thanks! Now everyone, go over to http://www.craftandvision.com and buy the greatest deal on the planet, wait, the universe, about photography! $5 eBooks, a deal that can’t be beat!!!!!
It would be nice, very nice…
I like that you have these giveaways! I like your pictures! I like to read the insights that you write on your blog! And I really like the Craft & Vision store. My favorite book is Chasing Reflections by Eli Reinholdtsen.
Thanks for all you do to help the rest of us find our photgraphic vision and improve our craft!
Great opportunity! Thanks David.
The Craft & Vision books would be a great value at triple the price, but at $5 they’re a steal! I have all of them, as well as David’s 3 printed books (Within the Frame, Vision Mongers, Vision & Voice).
Thank-you for being such a great source of information and inspiration. I’m really hoping to join you on one of your tours, maybe in 2012.
Fantastic giveaway…thank you for a chance to win. I have just purchased three of your e-books, and can’t wait to read them.
Love the blog and the Vision & Voice books which I’m actually re-reading now. Awesome giveaway that could really help shape anyones vision!
Thanks for all of the amazing resources you share with us!! I’ve got all but the last couple of your e-books, as well as 2 of your hard copy books. Love them all!!!
Mmm, yes please.
Love all of your books Dave. I buy them the day they come out. Hope I win the CS5. Keep up the great work you have been doing.
I’ve bought 5 of the photography books from Craft and Vision. They are all excellent teaching tools as well as great inspiration!
I love what you’re doing – keep it up. I especially love the e-books and the details of how you achieve those spectacular images. I managed to watch your webinar yesterday and enjoyed it very much. Hopefully we can have coffee together on my next trip to Vancouver.
David, your books are very well written. Good job.
Ha! I never win these things. Prove me wrong
Thanks for the inspirational (e)books.
Hello M. DuChemin,
you are a very generous person for taking the time to share your knowledge with your peers in multiple ways. Be it via books, online classes and in person. I however missed your last webinar and hope it will be available for a re-watch.
Thanks again for helping us envision our vision
I’ve bought your books and your last weekend workshop — love your work! Would be over the top with CS5. Thanks
I have only used Nikon NX2. Talk about a learning curve!
Count me in please!
I have a couple of the digital books… great stuff!
Yes, please.
I’ve read and enjoyed all of the black and white photography ebooks that you’ve offered so far.
Also, might as well throw my own name into the pool
Wow, what a great giveaway!
Heading to Europe tomorrow and pouring over the blog, reviewing the podcasts, and going back over Within The Frame with a highlighter in preparation!
Very cool giveaway!
Just discovered this website the other day and I’m really enjoying it so far!
Wow, what a prize! My mom initially turned me onto your books, and since then, Ive already recommended them to several of my photography friends.
What a great prize. Your blog is something I look forward to reading, it is quite inspirational.
Generous giveaway. Thanks!
Come onnnnnnn CS5! It’s time to give my Dreamweaver an upgrade. Thanks, David.
You are a social network monster. Thank you for inspiring us and helping me to see and find my vision. Gear is good, vision is better.
David- I’ve downloaded several of the craft and vision series e books.
some of my very favorite reads!
Thanks, David!
Keep doing everything you do.
Thanks for making this possible!
Wow! CS5 MC! That would be a very nice update to my CS3 Design Premium…If there is one word that describes David duChemin and his work it’s – opportunity. Whether it be his posts, his books or his Craft & Vision Series, he gives each and every one of us the opportunity to find out who we are as artists and pursue our passions.
Thanks David for your inspiration and perspiration!
I’ve read several of the craft and vision books. They’re unique, because they aren’t long reads, but rather short doses of inspiration. Poignant stuff!
Vision is knowledge! Books and eBooks here increase your knowledge!!
Great website, David – I really enjoy reading it as well as your books.
Too often the industry pushes technology and gadgetry as a substitute for artistry and vision. The e-books on Craft and vision refocus the photographer what is truly important – what they are trying to say with their photographs.
Wow! Who would have thought I’d have the chance to get the Adobe CS5 Master Collection for less than the cost of one of your ebooks. That is, the same chance as the thousands that are going to show up here during the course of the next month. But still…keep the ebooks coming! Thanks for what you do!
Wow, wow, wow…I love the site and books! Count me in.
This is it!
Great!
Wholy learning curve batman! Nice utility belt…er…okay. I’d love to give CS5 a whirl…of course I’d end up spending a bunch on a new ‘puter to run it. Thanks for all the great sharing you do on this blog.
I have several of the e books, great idea, great inspiration.
Thanks
Good stuff. Looking forward to having a chance of winning.
Have a good time in Asia!
Love the eBook format as I can pick the topics I want. Congrats on the creativelive thing as well – I love that model.
Thanks for this great giveaway. Love the blog!
Wow that’s a great offer ontop of all your great e-books. Thanks David!
The e-books are great, even have my budding photog daughter read and learn.
Awesome giveaway.
Thank you for the opportunity.
Great contest, David!
I have five of the Craft&Vision ebooks. They are educational and inspirational…
Joel
David, I recently bought you black and white series of ebooks. Absolutely love it.
thanks,
Robin
incredible giveaway!
love craft and vision and i don’t hesitate to tell everyone about your e-books.
This is an amazing giveaway. Saw your tweet and couldn’t believe it, but here it is!
(enjoyed your Manfrotto School of Excellence talk yesterday)
Oops..looks like my last comment didn’t make it. Just wanted to say that I loved your ebooks on black and white photography.
Robin
Very generous! Great Site!

Great deal! Keep up the great work David et al…
Great prize, really loving the Vison and Voice book.
Giveaway? Great! David, I finally bought Within The Frame
Cheers from T.O. – Carsten
maybe, just maybe I’ll actually win something for once. Well worth a bit of typing
David, this is a great thing, thanks to you and to Adobe for putting this on. Whoever wins this is going to be really blessed by such a package. Who knows maybe it will be me!
David,
I’ve been an avid follower of yours for a little over 2 years now. It’s really been eye opening and I know I view my own photography differently now than I did previous to my reading your works.
I love giveaways and I’d love to win but if I don’t, I’ll still be a follower…
I love your C&V stuff…keep it coming!
This is great.
I own 2 of your books, and have been lurking ever since, but this is worth a post! hahaha
Take care!
Mandatory part done.
Voluntary: I have all the C&V eBooks and re-read them often. I’ve also bought/sent them to other photgraphers.
Best of all is David’s Vision book. See my detailed Amazon review, or just save a few minutes and click buy when the page comes up.
Thanks for this opportunity, David.
Best wishes.
I had decided not to buy any updates to the adobe products I already have, but I don’t think I can pass up a chance to win some! That would be amazing! Your blog has helped me a lot since I graduated and started my photography career. So thanks!
A remarkable prize! A relatively new visitor to this site but already expanding my vision through the few ebooks I’ve bought. Thanks for helping us to be life-long learners.
That would be very nice indeed, I reckon I could put that to good use!
e-books are very nice by the way even if you just buy them for the pictures. I suggest you read them though there’s good info in them!
I’ve got your 3 books, 14 eBooks from CraftAndVision, bought (and actually watched
your CreativeLive show), and I still keep reading your blog (maybe I need a therapy ?). So please, please, please David, stop with that vision stuff and gimme some gear/software !
OK. More seriously though, you’ve got great resources here that I can only recommend.
Wow, the master collection. You do go all out for us, David. Thanks.
Awesome giveaway, David! Here’s crossing my fingers
That’s a very generous prize David. It’s always nice to get a new ebook but extra good to win a prize as well – I’m sure it’s mine as my partner’s initials are CS and my daughter is just turning 5. Plus I’m also planning someday to build a house from adobe – yep it must be mine
You give away some great stuff, David. Thanks for sharing.
I love the concept and execution of the Craft and Vision educational model. Thank you and job tremendously well done!
Winning this would be a great bonus as is receiving all the insights you post.
What would we do with the software without Craft and Vision to inspire us?
Hope I win it
Cheers

You rock David! And so does Adobe.
What a great resource of information and all for $5.00!!! Keep up the great work.
Fantastic prize! Here’s hoping!
No kidding this is the big one! Big fan of the blog and your work. I really enjoy several of your e-Books and recommended them to friends. Keep it up!
Love all of your work David, I’ve been following you since your first publication and always look forward to what’s new. Keep up the great work. Thanks!
Thanks David. The C&V eBooks are really great. Very inspiring.
This is an amazing and generous giveaway. Thank you David for being so inspiring.
Awesome prize! I would love to win this. It would help start my business! Fingers Crossed!
Just call me an e-book junkie. I’ve purchased 7 – wow! My first was 10 ways to improve your craft – which I loved and it set me on my way to being hooked. Then I purchased Below the Horizon, Magic of BW II, Venice a Monograph, Safari a Monograph, Chasing Reflections, and finally Magic of BW III. I always buy at the ridiculously low price of $4 when they first are released. I love the whole concept of the project/photo essay approach to photography so love the Monograph series. The BW series is excellent. And, Eli Reinholdsten rocks with Chasing Reflections. So, for a total of $21 dollars I’ve learned an incredible amount.
Love your work and looking forward to see you in Ladakh
Gear is good, but software is better…
…wait, did I get that wrong?
Great prize for your well earned community. Thanks for all of the work you do inspiring the photographic diaspora.
This is a great give away, maybe I can finally upgrade from Photoshop Elements 6! It is also another example of how the folks here and at Craft And Vision give back!
Thank you!
Fantastic giveaway, David! As always, you are helping out the little guy who wants to improve his/her craft of photography. I have read several Craft&Vision ebooks and find them to be beautiful reads with great information at an affordable price.

Wow, this is quite generous! Your books have been a big inspiration and keep me hard at work at perfecting the craft. Winning this CS5 Collection would help put it over the top!
Ah.. So we all going to be converted now to Kelby’s vision of “its all about Photoshop”… Dark Side is calling you.. “Search your feelings, Luke, you know it to be true..”

J/k – nothing beats good photo made in camera in first place.
loved your black and white photography ebooks. keep ‘em coming…!
Wow! What an awesome giveaway!!! Thank you!
What a great giveaway! Crossing my fingers and toes for this one.
I’m never one to give up the chance for an Adobe giveaway. Thanks for the site(s) and books David!
Wow great blog, great books and now a chance to win a great software package. I guess that’s why I keep coming back to pixelatedimage.com
WOW! Such an awesome giveaway! Thank you David and thank you Adobe! I will help spread the word for sure!
Love your blog and books, David. Keep it up!
I have downloaded two of the e-books and they are a great resource and an even better value. Thanks for sharing!
You are amazing!
This is really big! Would love to have the entire suite. Big thanks to you, David, and Adobe.
Wow, what an opportunity, here’s hoping!
I really love the e-books, they’ve made me change the way I take photographs. It’s hard to choose which one has helped me most, today’s choice would be the ‘Print & The Process’ series.
Wow! Great giveaway! Good luck everyone!
Hey David, thanks for the chance of winning this piece of amazing software.
I’m a college student, and your book “Within the Frame” has really helped me with working on my, for lack of better word, vision when taking photos. I ain’t selling that book back at the end of the semester, sorry future” Intro to Media” students!
I have purchased all the ebooks, except Eli’s because I have her print book
Seems like you may get a record number of comments for this one!
Keep up the good work and count me in.
Your info is always so helpful to me! Thank you. I’d love to win this for my new Mac system!
Craft and Vision has become my favorite book-store. I download each book that I have purchased to a thumb-drive so that I can carry them wherever I go…
Thanks for everything, David!
I have been recomending Craft and Vision for a while! They are all great inspiration that does not break the bank!
CS5! Whoa!
I haven’t upgraded since Photoshop 7, and even though I’m doing fine on that, my friends ridicule me for being conservative. This could definitely up my ante in the photographic ‘hood!
Thanks for putting this up and thanks for a great resource, great books and really great instruction.
Martin
Awesome giveaway! Thank you!
Wow. What an awesome giveaway.
Cool, thanks for everything!
Incredible source of information on your web sites and publication ! Thanks for the inspiration you provide !

Amazing prize from amazing people, thanks for the opportunity! Hope I can enter, living in Cusco, Peru…yes, the Craft & Vision word has reached 3500m up into the Andes!
I’ve been learning from David for a while. His e-Books, blog and portfolio all help me find my own vision. Giving away free tools is just a bonus, but one I am keen try to get!
Thanks David!

I wish I had something clever, witty, and complimenting to say here. But I’m running on empty right now. Thanks, David!

Thanks Dave! You are the man.
No catch eh?! you are one of a kind.
C.
I like random and own most of the e-books and refer to them often. Well done David.
Thanks David! You rock!
Very cool!
Thanks for this amazing giveaway David. Love your books.

David, Craft & Vision is a brilliant idea, being masterfully executed! Thanks so much for giving back. CS5 MASTER COLLECTION
Your ebooks are great. I read all of them and I am waiting for Iceland.
Wow, it would be great to win it!
BTW, I don’t think you need to encourage us to promote your ebooks… they’re awesome!
Such a great contest. CS5mc would go real well with my new imac…
I really enjoy your eBooks, David. Thanks for all you do!
I took your class on creativeLIVE….very inspiring. Keep up the good work!
Wow! I picked up 5 e-books last week to add to the great Top10 and what I’ve read so far has been very good. It will take a while to work my way through them all.
Love your blog, thanks for the opportunity to win a pretty awesome prize!
Loove your blog a lot. And wow! What a give away!!!!
You rock! Thanks for the books, I’m so impressed on how much you produce. All great content!
I want CS5!!!
David, as always you are awesome! Love reading your blog and tweets without a giveaway, but that just makes it all the better. LOL!
Love the site and your books. Hopefully will love master suite as well
“10″ is one of my all-time favorite photography books. It’s fantastic to see “Within The Frame” is introduced as a college textbook. Congratulations David!
A super act of generosity – well done and thank you. Keep up the good work!
Amazing!
wow 200 comments already
but I’ll take my chances… hoping to win this package!
oh and by the way: really loved your creative live workshop! learned a lot there!
This is an excellent giveaway and will certainly help some lucky photographer, hopefully me:) I really enjoyed VisionMongers and look forward to checking out some of these ebook titles.
Love the e-books! I’ve read ‘Drawing the Eye’ and ‘Ten’ and am looking forward to (finally) settling in to ‘Vision Is Better’ this weekend.
I want the whole collection…awesome information, and great inspiration!
Thanks for the excitement.
Your images and books are inspiring, and I learn a lot from your writing. I love that you have the Craft & Vision store dedicated to making better images.
Thank you for the inspiration and the wonderful giveaways!
love your ebooks. Carry them on my ipod touch to read when I have a few minutes here and there. They are great
Pick me! Pick me! Me! Me!
Please….
Fantastic! Thanks in advance David. Love your print and e-books, have a safe trip, Jeff
Wow! Master Collection?!? What an incredible giveaway! I’ve got my fingers crossed.
I could use CS5!
Enjoy your trip to Asia, wish I was going too. Love all the Craft & Vision e-books, looking forward to Iceland Monograph.
Huge! Thanks, David. I’m picking up the Black & White series of ebooks shortly. I own pretty much all of the others and they’re fantastic.
This would be the perfect gift for a photographer just starting out, and I have been taking classes at the local college to learn how to use the program. Your work is so amazing I hope to be half as good as you someday!!
Thank you for doing this, David! I went through VisionMongerrs recently and it dramatically impacted the way I’m thinking about voice and vision.
Thank you for your on-line session yesterday. To bad it was not three hours long!
Great, Great stuff! Just the information I am looking for to move to the next level.
On my way to down load my first book.
All the best!
Steven
Mr. DuChemin, you are an inspiration. Thank you for this great opportunity and all of the writing that you do.
Thank you David. Love your books (reading through Within the frame now). Didn’t know about the ebooks. Will check those out.
Thanks for being a such a great leader in the creative community.
Been enjoying your blog for quite some time and this seems like a good excuse to let you know!
Thanks for all your generous contribution, David!
Hi David, please keep up the good work!
Thanks for all the great info in you ebooks. I have 5 of them that I got during your creativelive broadcast. What a great weekend of education. Also read The War of Art that you recommended, twice! It is one I will turn to again and again. Great session yesterday, loved the pics of Iceland. Can’t wait to see what you create in Asia, have a great trip!
Wow! What an amazing giveaway. Love your stuff.
Exciting! Thanks for a chance to win! [we're still gonna miss ya while you're gone, ...just sayin' ...fabulous giveaways only go so far!]
Your work helps me to see with my creative eye. Thank you for all that you do.
Craft & Vision is an awesome success David! I tell the world about your work every chance I get!
I’d love to be entered in the draw for the chance to win the CS5 master collection. That would come in very handy!
Cheers!
trevor.
Thanks for the grade class @ creative Live.
David, Thanks for being so generous with your thoughts! I am truly enjoying reading the eBooks and loved the seminar on CreativeLive! Vision is key! Keep up the great, thought provoking work you’re doing!
I’m really enjoying your books, David. They are helping me capture photographs in a new way. Thank you!
Now THAT’S what I call a giveaway! Fingers crossed, and thanks to David for his powers of persuasion and Adobe for their generosity.
Great giveaway. Your always trying to help out!
Thanks for another great contest David!
Amazing giveaway, sir. Thanks so much!
Great giveaway David – it sure brings out the lurkers
I’d love to win a copy of CS5…I have a ton of images that I’d love to work on and this would give me a great opportunity.
Hey David,
Please come back and visit the Niagara Region of Ontario. Pizza is on me!
C’mon big money…No Whammies! No Whammies!
Thanks for doing this.
I appreciate your approach to photography and especially your approach to life. Thank you!!!
Apprently, I am going to be the 344 comments! Thanks for the drawing. J’ai bien hate de recevoir le colis par la poste…
I NEED this package! I’ve been suffering with CS4/Cineform for WAY too long, and won’t be able to upgrade for a while. Plus, the InDesign is really useful!
David this is an incredible gift to the community. Thank you and thank you, Adobe.
Thank you for what you all do! And thanks for the opportunity!!
This is great. Thanks for the opportunity.
Sweet, Thank you. I love your work.
I know it’s been said, but it is an incredibly generous giveaway.
That’s a crazy prize to win! Thanks David and adobe for offering this!
I am a big fan of the TEN series and the B&W series ebooks from craft and vision! It’s almost like a collectors mania! Buying the craft and vision books as it’s released!
Have them all on my iPad so I could get to them anywhere, anytime, anyplace!
Thanks for the website and opportunity.
So far, the only thing I’ve ever won was a 10-pound bag of oranges. So, I’m hoping this is the big one. (The oranges were good, but….) Enjoyed Eli’s book, David’s Ten Things, now working my way through Vision is Better, which is full of interesting, thoughtful, well-written stuff.
David, thanks for all of the inspiration. The $5 e-books are required reading as are Visonmongers and Within the Frame.
I am looking forward to getting the Lightroom book soon.
This is such an inspiring blog, and Within The Frame is easily the best book on photography I’ve ever seen. I’m really hoping you do a post soon on your thoughts on your tilt-shift lens, now that you’ve had a chance to break it in a bit.
holly wow! Since the “Within the frame podcaaaast” (as you use to say it hehe) I’ve been following your posts… I badly want the VisionMongers but for now it would be great the CS5 suite
thanks for the opportunity!
I continue to be inspired by your work, your books and your passion for the art of photography. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. You are truly generous.
You’re a gentleman and a scholar. LOVED Vision & Voice, trying to get my friends to buy it.
This is amazing. Thanks for the giveaway. Your book Visionmongers has truly helped me focus more on my vision rather the gear.
Craft & Vision ebooks are the best bargain around! Your books aren’t too shabby either
David, I keep “Frame” and “Vision” on my coffee table and read as time makes possible. Your writing and feeling resonate so well with me. I have given a plug on my NAPP forum!! Thanks for another opportunity.
Hi David, enjoy your trip! By the way, would be great to see you in Japan some day…
Happy to be in the drawing hat, i will tell the world now!
What a giveaway! I always enjoy reading your posts and books – thanks for sharing your knowledge!
I use a PC…I can wait
Loved the course you did on vision over at CreativeLIVE.
With an offer like this who would say no? I Just finished “Within the Frame” after reading most of your eBooks and “Vision and Voice”. You have succeeded in changing the way I approach every shot and my images are improving both out of the camera and after post-processing, mainly in LR3. Now if I could only find my vision :>(
My goodness what a prize! thank you for sharing such a great prize and your knowledge.
Thank you for the chance to win great prizes from your website. I have yet to read your Craft & Vision Series, but I have read your book “Within the Frame,” which is an excellent read and has really helped me out in my photography endeavors. Thank you!
Love your VisionMongers book. A real inspiration. Excited for the contest. Thank you!
CS5!!!! Even the box is pretty. Love the books, keep up the good work.
Hi David,
Thank you. Within the Frame saved me from my steroid-laced inner (ok, mostly outer) geek, and your eBooks enlighten, inspire, and entertain
me to no end. The concept of compression alone has me looking at photography in a whole new light, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg. I’m currently living in Singapore.. Feel like doing a photo walk while you’re here? =D
Awesome. Your site is where I go for practical inspiration when I’m low on it. Cheers.
Ad
Good golly. First the books, then the courses, and now this!!!.. You sir are and inspiration on many levels and push all of us to continue adapting and working on our craft. For that, thanks.
j
Wow what an awesome givaway. Thanks David!
Wow, thanks for doing this! Love your ebooks and blog, very insightful and valuable to us photographers!
Thanks for the great information and inspiration you provide, David! Very thought provoking. I own all of your e-books (and those of your ‘associate’ writers) and am working through them. They are awesome! And you have inspired me to learn InDesign and create e-books for some things I have done for myself and my family and friends and, possibly, to experiment with self-publishing. Great stuff! Thank you!!
Bill
As the song says, “I was lost, then I found you”
Months ago I started following David, his books, and Craft & Vision ebooks, and… everything has changed since then!
Cradft & Vision is a great source of information, inspiration and creativity (which is not often taken into account) It’s the best place to come and learn photography in the terms of expression and creativity, not only in terms of technology and market pressures.
I just can say THANK YOU folks at Craft & Vision, and THANK YOU David for you work.
Thanks for all you do for the lovers and the dreamers David!
David, LOVE your books and photos! You are the most inspiring photographer and author I’ve found in years.
I’ve read most of your eBooks (have them all, just not enough time) and have a couple of reviews of them on my website.
Very generous Adobe and David thank you!
Enjoy your blog and ebooks too!
Well, that sound’s like a great offer. And I think it is
Saw you on creative live – keep up the spirit
Wow! Amazing giveaway! Thank you for everything that you’ve shared with us
Wooo! Mac versions please
I have read and re-read both of your print books, and am now moving over to the Craft and Vision series. Your writing (and the other contributors) is very inspiring for me to hone my vision and creative process. Thank you for continuing to write and motivate the likes of us.
I always look forward to your posts David. They really have a different perspective on photography. I love how you focus on the process (Why we shoot) rather than the technicals (How).
Awesome give away! Thanks for all that you’re contributing to the photography community David!
Thank you for the inspiration that comes from your blog and your books. Your giveaway is awesome!
What a cool opportunity. Thanks! This would be better than Christmas and birthday presents all rolled into one.
And for any who are on the fence about the http://craftandvision.com/ books, don’t hesitate. They’re very good and an excellent value. Highly recommended.
Thank you! Cool Give away!
Excellent source of information. Keep it coming!
Thanks for the opportunity David. Enjoying your eBooks and blog along with the great work you are doing.
JayT
Just finished reading Vision Mongers and it’s really opened my eyes towards what it takes to break out and follow my passions. Great resource and jumping off point!
Jason
Thanks for the chance to win the software David!
WOW…..this is a nice one

What a great blog, and the Craft & Vision materials are a great deal. Thanks so much!
Awesome Stuff Guys!! Keep it coming!!
Thoroughly enjoyed all of eBook series so far as well as printed works that got me started. Thanks muchly David – thought provoking and inspiring stuff!
Wow David, pretty awesome. Thanks for inspiring us all.
David gets it, and gives it back through teaching, books and the Craft & Vision series. Excellent!
This is an amazing giveaway, fitting of a site with such amazing resources. I love the Inspired Eye books especially.
Thats a really great gift!
Thank you so much<333

I’ll throw my hat in for this one.
Over the past year I’ve grown from what I consider a “beginning amateur” to more of a “serious amateur”. The Craft and Vision e-books have been an excellent resource for me during this time. It all started with “10″ and “10 more” getting me out shooting every day and expanding my skills. This was followed by “Drawing the Eye” which helped even more. Thanks David for everything you do for all of us amateurs out in the world. Your words in print, on the web and via podcast/video are truely inspiring and your dedication to the craft and especially to helping others – like myself – develop their craft is the true essence of “giving something back”. Keep at it!
Come to papa! Baby needs a new pair of shoes! Well you know what I mean….
Thanks for everything you do and providing quality ebooks at a fabulous price. The new iPad apps look great.
Stan
wow. thank you for the opportunity!
i’m reading “Visionmongers” for the second time – it is fantastic and I am learning heaps and encouraged as well! Thank you for that!
bought 5 ebooks for $20 a couple of weeks ago and am planning on diving into them very soon;) cs5….huge treat!
Hi David (can you tell how much I like you because I used your first name and wish we were friends?) Your books are great (please flattery win me some Photoshop) and have become a regular part of my literary diet (See I didn’t find this post by Googling “free CS5″). You really inspire me with you quest for vision (second try at convincing you I’ve read them all and another attempt at flattery). I tell all my photography friends that they are awesome resources (this part is true). I hope I win (in case that wasn’t clear).
The Craft and Vision books have been the best money I’ve spent on photography to date. I was able to use the inspiration found in those books immediately to create better images. Now if I could just find a way to make it to one of your workshops…
count me in! love your stuff…
Sweet suite give away!
Love the site. Thanks!
This is awesome, David. Thanks for doing this for the community.
BTW, I am now reading your VisionMongers book. Very inspiring.
I love your e-books and the site here. Its very inspirational and has helped me grow as an amateur photog in many ways. Thanks again and keep up the great work here.
Absolutely incredible! I have all of the Craft & Vision eBooks and absolutely love them! Please, keep them coming.
Okay, I’m in.
Hat tip for making the “tell the world” part optional – you’ll probably end up with better, more authentic publicity from those who choose to do it.
Nice prize! And the Ebooks at http://www.craftandvision.com are some of the best I’ve read.
Keep up the good work.
Great offer David! I have rad all the books and most of the ebooks – all brilliant and inspiring stuff. Love the blog, always keeps me thinking!
Wow fantastic prize. Thanks for organizing this. I loved Dave Delnea’s and Andrew Gibson’s e-books.
Cheers
Derrick
Thanks, David and Adobe for this “the only way I’d ever get this chance”. Have many of your books and share the site and point many friends to your e-books. Keep them coming.
Thanks a lot for all you do for the community. It’s really great work.
Rob
Hi David,
thanks for the great blog, i am catching up on reading the ebooks, but have ways to go, slowly working my way through them
Thierry
Thank you for sharing your passion with your
$5 e-books.
Awesome. Would be great to have CS5.
Great Googly Moogly!
Thanks for the opportunity, David.
Love your work, love the E-books. Love this give away.
I love that you write about your passion in such an approachable voice. It keeps me reading just as much as the fact that it’s useful info.
Congrats on having a great opportunity to give away something so hefty!
Bonjour David, I’m in the middle of reading your latest book “Vision & Voice”. It has already helped create better photos. Highly recommanded. Thanks for your great work!
Great stuff. Keep going!
I recently finished Vision is Better and Chasing the Look and enjoyed them both. Thanks for sharing your insights with all of us.
Wow, thank you David and Adobe for such a great opportunity. I’m a relatively new photographer (professionally at least) and thoroughly enjoy your blog. Thanks for helping us all keep ‘inspired’.
Your books are amazing. I tell everyone I know.
Wow, this is really cool! I could definitely use this software, so please count me in. Am currently reading “VisionMongers”, and am really enjoying and getting a lot out of it!
Many thanks, David!

You’re a constant source of inspiration and knowledge, thanks for this opportunity!
Awesome ! I should try those ebooks, they must be gorgeous seeing all the good coments !
I’m still waiting for your book Vision Mongers to arrive! I won it on a DIYPhotography contest.
Let’s cross fingers again.
Cheers from Spain!
Found your website by listening to TWIP. Since then I’ve purchased a few of your e-books and refer to them often when the creative juices run low. I was thumbing through Vision & Voice just yesterdasy at Barnes and Noble – I’ll have to actually purchase it next payday.
Best wishes and continued success (i’ll be listening).
Tim
This is quite a prize! Thank you for all the information you share with us David. In fact, multiply my thanks my the number of comments on this post, you deserve them.
Thank you David for this great giveaway ! Thank you to Adobe too
!!!!!
Love you workshop on creativelive and have been following ever since. Thanks for the great opportunity.
Seriously guys, say something positive? How about try and find something negative? I mean from the images, to the content the ebooks are proving to me that while the type on paper form of communication is on the decline (sadly) the importance of the printed word remains as strong as ever. What’s more, the need for quality content, not rehashed references to other work is particularly important too.
Keep up the fantastic job. I’m here for you when ever you need.
Free swag is always welcomed, but I cannot stress how great the Craft & Vision series has been ~ an awesome resource to add to any collection!
Count me in! I’m always tooting your horn, David, and I’m an affiliate for Craft and Vision. Your books/ebooks are always inspiring. I’m also retweeting! Wait…that brings more people and cuts down my chances! Too late.
I’m a huge fan of the three “real” books you put out – and of course everybody loves free stuff!
At $5, the craft and vision series might as well be free stuff – most people pay more than that for their daily addictions anyway!
Thank you and Adobe for a generous contest. Wow!
I just ordered your “Vision & Voice” book….I can’t wait to read it!
Love your books! They just provide that little push I need once in a while to take risks and open up new opportunities.
Well for this one I don’t have to work very hard at all. The topics you discuss are generally the things that as photographers we are all talking about already and your name comes up in almost every discussion. You certainly have the pulse of the photography community and we have all read at least one of your books. It is interesting to me how people emerge for this function and you are doing a great job of it. Perhaps that can be the theme of your next book lol.
Really? How very generous! thanx.
Love your work, and have enjoyed your books and ebooks.
You’re performing a wonderful service, both in making offers like this one (for the CS Master Collection) and in creating the eBooks in Craft & Vision. I’ve recommended the eBooks to many friends and others that I’ve met in some recent photo workshops. Everyone agrees that they’re worth getting!
Take care,
Dave
Wouldn’t that be nice indeed? Yes it would.
Umm yes please! I couldn’t pass up a giveaway like this.
Going to be honest, I’m only commenting for the drawing of CS5!
Though I do enjoy reading and learning from the blog.
You just keep giving!
Thanks David! Super sweet + generous of you! I’ve been following your work for a little while now and just adore it! Cheers!
Full disclosure: I won a lensbaby before. But I’ll happily donate that to another reader if I’m drawn for the CS5 suite (I just don’t use the lens as much as I should).
Anyway, thanks for continuing to offer the $5 e-books… great resource at an unbelievable price.
Safe travels!
Super awesome giveaway! Love the blog and the books.
Wow, this is awesome! Not only do you impart awesome advice, but give away awesome stuff too.
That’s so cool!
Nice shooting. One of the best examples of journalistic shooting style I have ever seen. Really nice. Also, a great way to get comments is to give something away for free. This is a generous give-away! I hope I win!
Wow! What a great prize.
Thanks David and Adobe.
Loved CreativeLIVE and I have all the ebooks. Tell my local camera club every time I get one that they should too. Sadly they have GAS.
Great!
hope i win!
I’m totally in sync with your approach to photography. I teach workshops as well and I’ve always emphasized what I call The Art of Seeing as the path to growing as a photographer. I just discovered you via the TWIP interview and was totally enthralled and inspired. Keep up the good work. Love the ebooks idea. I will be trying it out myself soon.
Wow, I’m 477! Thanks David!
If this giveaway is a dream, i don’t want to wake up.
[...] [...]
Thank you very much for this blog and the pdf files. Now that your great customer service answered regarding overseas purchases without a paypal account and some time on weekends, i shall look into buying some of your nice ebooks. Will share this blog / website via facebook as well!
Awesome software and site!
Love the books, expecially the series on Black and White photography. Excellent bang for the buck.
I’ve purchased most of the ebooks available on Craft & Vision because they’re both informative as well as inspirational. Can’t wait for the titles from Gavin Gough and Kevin Clark to finally come out… Keep up the great work, David.
Can’t wait for the Craft and Vision Iceland monograph and neither can my iPad.
I feel good about spreading the word about Craft and Vision, on my blog, Twitter and elsewhere
, so maybe karma will work for me 
.
Thanks David, for sharing all that you do.
I own most of your books (hardcopy and electronic) and have not been deceived. Looking forward for more in the future !
After preparing breakfast to my sick son and of course the time difference, I’m able to sit at this chair to leave my comment. Fortunately, David, I have to say that I posted your collection on my twitter account (@iwidesign) yesterday
)) I’m new to this technology but I find it amazing, thank you for your advice on this!
I had the lucky chance to meet you at the Photo Festivals here on Maui and after hearing your encouraging speech I really believe you can help and have helped many of us out there . . . why not promote such great, inexpensive product?
What I like about you most than anything else is your generosity. Many people that have reached success just care about being more and more rich everyday. You on the other hand are showing your true colors, as a photographer that pursue the soul of the people or landscape in every photo, I wouldn’t expected anything less.Thank you! I wish more unique people like you were out there
)
P.S.: I’m getting your book today!
Have a nice trip!!
Ceci
=)
Nice to meet you David!!
I actually found your blog the other day through Twitter, and I can’t wait to see what I’ve been missing here!!
(love your iphoneography, btw, I love my iPhone 4)

Wow, great giveaway idea, David! I love your books and blog… always inspiring.
That’s what I desire for years: a free CS5! Hope you’re drawing from the names not the posts, which would make everyone post thousands of posts…
Keep up the good work, David!
Having just discovered the Craft & Vision website, I am amazed by the quality of the work. This is also my first introducted to your work here, David. Thank you for the education.
Your e-books have been such a great help!
Keeping my fingers crossed! Enjoyed your creativeLive sessions. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge.
Hi, great giveaway please count me in
Thanks
I’ve got 4 of the eBooks from Craft & Vision and I must say that each one helps me to simply take a step back and THINK. Think about what I want to shoot, why I want to shoot it, and what I could do to make my photo more unique. Yes, there are some technical details, but the thrust of these books is to help us put more thought into our work and make it art. Thanks David for helping us along this journey!
WOW! this is awesome!
Oh my goodness I would absolutely LOVE to have the CS package. I love your work David, and I love what you’re bringing to us through Craft and Vision!
Hope I win!
Thanks for the giveaway, David. I’ve read 6 of your e-books, as well as 2 of your print books, and all of them have been helpful and inspiring. You rock!
Yesterdays webex was great. Love your books in print and ebook format and your blog.
Thanks for sharing.
Your work is great and inspiring.
Realizing my odds are equal to winning the lottery due to David’s fame & this amazing offer! Keeping my fingers crossed while preaching the Craft & Vision gospel (I have almost all!)
Awesome…hope you have a great trip to Asia.
Ok just bought 2 of your books. Didn’t get Vision & Voice because I don’t have Lightroom. Thanks again for this opportunity!
wow so cool thanks!
Wanted to be #500, but cant´wait anymore
Wow, what a great giveaway. Count me too, please. Thank you in advance!
Hi,
Thank you for this giveaway!
What an amazing giveaway! I bumped into your work by accident through CreativeLive. I stumbled into your class (the livefeed that is!) somewhere in the middle and was hooked right away
Love your work, love your “Gear is good, Vision is better” philosophy. Got me inspired to pick up my photography again! Keeping my fingers crossed for the random draw 
I so enjoy your insight shared through your Ebooks! Thanks for all you do for all of us!
Count me in!
That’s a great idea! Thank you to sharing your vision with us
Love your books. Thank you for the giveaway
as a beginner, I have come to rely on David’s ebooks for vision and support. I can identify with the message and clearly laid out lessons, at only $4-5 a pop, this is a really easy way to enhance my learning curve. I’ve bought all the ebooks and would love to win the CS5 package!
Hey, I may actually win this thing.
Thanks for another great giveaway.
This is a great giveaway! I love this site, tons of great articles and free stuff…
Greetings, David! Wow, what a fantastic prize on the line…count me in! Keep up your great work. Have a wonderful time in Asia!

Keep inspiring!
WHAAAAAAAAAAAAT, I CAN NOT …. OHHH MY HEART. THX….. COUNT ME
Thank you for sharing a little slice of your world. It’s been very helpful in many ways.
OK … this is my first comment on your site
… but I like your work and I’m waiting for each new eBook which helps me improve my skills. You helps me focus on right things and I like motto “Gear is good. Vision is better”. Thank you David!
Well, my current laptop tried to eat CS3 and CS4 – so a new laptop by Christmas & winning CS5 – oh happy day! Though I think my chances are probably 1 in 700,000 – still gotta try!

It’s incredible deal; dreams for all. Keep silence to hear good news, word from my ancestors. Anyway fantastic giveaway.
David, you never cease to amaze me! This is a fantastic prize that you are giving out… I am still shocked by the news. You host a great website to learn about our vision, to refine the process, to be more intentional, to get beautiful wallpaper, to buy beautifully produced ebooks and occassionally to win a prize!! I can’t wait for the drawing.
Have a great time in Asia!
Have a couple of books and I attended the Manfrotto webinar last night “Understanding and Using the Visual Language . . .” It was awesome!! This is a fantastic giveaway!
love your work and your attitude David – keep it coming. This is a fantastic prize – thank you Adobe!
Amazing giveaway! This would be a great step towards elevating my photography to your level!
I’ve just started checking out e-books, and one or two of David’s are definitely next on my list. It’s hard to find a comparable bargain to a $5 book full of excellent instruction!
Have added Within the Frame to my Wish List to give you a permanent presence by my bed! I’m working my way through the exercises in your e-books which are thought provoking and stretching just like any work out should be. The beauty of the internet though is that you’ve “introduced” me to other amazing photographers work. Thanks for being such a leader in your field.
Wow, super super giveaway…
I have both your books and E-books and have been strongly influenced by them and your ideas!! It has changed my photographing forever!! Thanks for sharing David!!
Thanks a lots for the Giveaway , I love to work on photoshop,Premiere, After effects and learning Illustration & flash , Using Trial Version of CS5 Master collection now.
This is a very generous gift David. I just can’t stop dreaming

wow… that’s a really generous giveaway!
Wow, what a great contest! Love free stuff!
Thanks for the opportunity. You are a fantastic resource and this is just the cherry on top.
I’ve been silently following for awhile now…thinking this would be a great time to leave a comment and to broadcast to the world all that I’ve learned here. Thank-you!!!
The Craft&Vision series has given me far more than its cost. Its insight and new way to look at things have increased my outlook and photos a hundred fold.

Hi. Do not count me in. I only congratulate to you about this great giveaway.
Wow, that’s a prize if I’ve ever heard one.
I downloaded five e-books from the Craft and Vision series to help me focus my approach and to build my photography business. Thank you for offering inexpensive reader options for those of us going through… well, an employment shift.

I think it is great that Adobe is suppling a copy of CS5 Master Collection for you to give away.
I have 11 of the e-books, fantastic values!!!!
Great posts, great books, great teacher!

Recently got an iPad knock off from China – main use to read Craft and Visions ebooks during my commute as well as the CreativeLive videos.

Great contest! Nothing like a $2600 prize to draw out the comments! Of course everything you give is a great value. Thanks!

David,
Thanks for the opportunity to win the CS5 suite. What a great prize. I’ve been a Photoshop addict for several years, but it’s time for an upgrade. I can’t think of a better way to do it. I recently purchased “Within the Frame,” and find it almost impossible to put down. I love how you present your ideas in words and photos. Keep up the great work–really enjoy the blog.
Bill
I haven’t read any of the eBooks. But, I do love all of your advice on the website. Thanks.
Hi David, great ebooks at great prices and now an awesome prize in the competition, it’s all here at craft & vision.
Michael Hartwig
Awesome contest, loved all the books I have read so far
I’ll try!
While winning the suite, would indeed, be sweet, I really just want to tell the world how amazing your eBooks are!! I have learned so much, and been inspired beyond anything gained at other seminars and workshops, or from other publications. David, you should be enshrined as a hero to all us photo boys and girls!
Keep the great eBooks coming, and thank you for so much knowledge and inspiration!
You da man!
Best,
Bruce
Thanks for the books and e-books. I find them very inspiring and useful. Oh, Yeah, thanks for the contest as well.
The generosity never stops! ebooks for $5… plus giving away a CS5 Master Collection. Can’t say “thank you” enough.
What a giveaway. Awesome stuff.
And your blog ain’t bad either 
Loved your stuff on creativelive.com Keep it up.
Hi David, What an awesome prize! upgrading from CS2 to CS5 would be fantastic.
Michael
Wow, thanks for running this! So much to digest.

Love ‘em! X
Love your work and within the frame was a great read.
Thanx
Can I only enter once. I have to say, I was hoping for less than 600ish comments
Craft & Vision is one of the best resources available online and you won’t find a better value anywhere.
sounds good mate
Woot! Thanks Dave!!
Unreal giveaway there David!
Even if 5,000 people leave comments – this has got to be better odds than winning the lottery!
Great giveaway David! I’m really enjoying the books right now! Keep it up and enjoy Asia!
Fantastic giveaway, fingers crossed and many thanks!
WOW! very interesting give away. Will tell the world about those Ebooks and the others. Really like your Vision and how you get those wonderful pictures. Now, to twitter and spread the word!!
Awesome give-away! I have enjoyed reading several of your books and so will ‘tweet’ the craft & vision site for you.

Your book Within The Frame inspires me.
It does make a difference.
Thank you so much !!!

Great contest David. Here is a quote I thought you might enjoy…..
“Beauty can be seen in all things, seeing and composing the beauty is what separates the snapshot from the photograph.” ~Matt Hardy
Waiting for 10 More Reloaded. Winter will be long.
Awesome giveaway, I’m in with everything crossed.
Here is to hoping
Thanks for sharing your knowledge, your books and blog are great!!
I am a geek, easily captivated by gadgets, flashing lights, etc. I have read Within the Frame and a couple of your ebooks and have enjoyed slowing down to consider why I am doing what I am doing and what story I am telling. I will be getting others in your series. I appreciate your work.
now this would be a great excuse to upgrade the computer
I already tell everyone I know about Craft and Vsion eBooks, no giveaways needed.
That said, it’s a sensational one you’ve got here!
This would be AMAZING!
Great giveaway, I have attend your webinar yesterday about vision, there is useful for inspiring me to take a photo that speak what I want.
I am new here, but your inspired eye e-books are on my desktops. Thanks
What a great giveaway, thanks!+
This is great! I love all your books and eagerly await those to come. Cheers!
Love your material! When are you coming to Dallas, TX?!
I have several of the eBooks and they are fantastic! Thanks for the giveaway!
Sweet potatoes!
Love your site and blog. I learn so much just by reading, and then practicing on my own. Thank you
Craft & Vision (http://craftandvision.com/) is one of the best photography resources out there.
Worth a shot!
I love your images and your books are as informative as they are engaging! Thanks for continually sharing
The giveaways are just an excellent bonus.
Nice. Cool. Sick. Count me in please. Thanks.
Love your books David.

Love your creativity and passion. I’ve enjoyed working through your ebooks. Love the quality and the price! =)
Awesome give away!! thanks
I hope I win, and I love the eBooks. keep up the great work
Wow this is awesome. Thankyou!
Really enjoyed the Craft & Vision books, and would really enjoy the prize.
I recommend your book to my friends all the time!
Dare I hope ? Yes ! Count me in !
Excellent! I love Adoble. I love this new promotion. I also hope it will get. Because, Adoble always an option in my design work.
Thanks so much.
You did an excellent job on CreativeLive. I am definitely getting your books very soon. I have to finish a couple of others first though.
Wow, that’s awesome!!
It very nice! Please send to me a key. Thanks for share!
Awesome. Still going through VisionMongers – only slow because it starts me thinking in so many directions.
It very nice! Please sent to me a key. Thanks for share!
Within the Frame is simply the best book of photographic insight that has been published to date…I doubt that it will ever be challenged. Visionmonger is the most readable book written on moving the vision to a paycheck… These two books will do more for more photographers than anything on the market. The vision, the web site, the Focus for Humanity Foundation and all the rest that David has put back into the ‘community’ mark him as a true visionary who is changing the face of photography, I know of no other photographer who has been so unselfish with his vision…I am proud to be a fan and a follower…
In awe of your social media technique and of your photog talent. Thanks for the give-away opportunity.
Wow. I have some of the eBooks. Very handy to pop up on your computer whenever you want to reference something.
I have just about every e-book from the Craft and Vision store, and followed the Creativelive sessions as well – thank you for all the work that you do for the vision-driven photographic community!
I have been reading your blog for some time now, and enjoying it. Very inspiring. Also currently reading your third book. I am a big lightroom fan and am enjoying it.
Oooh! Oooh! Pick me! Pick me! (Well it worked in school.) Love the e-books, especially the ones on B&W. Keep it up and I hope you’ll need to see me after class.
-Ed
Thanks, David! Have a great trip and best of luck!
Awesome.Count me in please.

I’ve purchased all of the books from the Craft & Vision site. I tired of all the tech articles everywhere and I draw a lot of inspiration from these writings.
Adobe makes magical software. Photoshop and After Effect become magicians.
Count me in ! I want to become a magician.
Love the contest and hope I win
I would definitely recommend everyone head over to Craft and Vision and at a minimum buy a couple or five of Dave’s E-Books.
A friend recommended you and I’m so glad he did. Your work and writing are original. Thank you for sharing!
Put my name in the hat please – That software suite would be SWEET! Thank you…
Sweet! Good luck to all, but hope I win

Great giveaway , please enroll my name in the list. I am a student.
Thank you David, thank you Adobe!
I have most of the Craft & Vision books and have gotten so much out of them. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and love of the art of seeing, David, and thanks for this opportunity!
got to be in it to when it
Oh, what an awesome gave away! Love your work–have a book and C&V ebook as well.
I’ve gotten several of the e-books and they are all greatly written and I enjoyed everyone. Great work!
Wow, no wonder it took so long to scroll to the bottom. This is a big one – an amazing give away, actually. It would be like winning a lottery!
The eBooks are awesome – I have them all. The non-e-Books I have too, all are great. No BS and to the point. Even though I have ways to go, I’m beginning to see the light…
Wow, what a generous giveaway!
Awesome! Count me in.
I’ve got the first 7 Craft & Vision ebooks and I look forward to getting the rest! I really do LOVE what you are doing with the ebook/self-publishing thing. I REALLY, really love what you are doing with the CS5 thing!!
Thank you, Adobe Mothership and David duChemin! Would love to win this!
Count me in!
I’m a big fan of the Craft & Vision books and the blog!
Awesome Giveaway! Thanks!
Wow
It is very generous of you to offer such a great prize. Keep up the great work and the amazing photography which I really enjoy looking at. Thanks!
Love your style David, Visionmongers leaves me feeling inspired and full of ideas every time I pick it up.
Hii,
Thanks for arranging such nice give away.
I am eagerly waiting for its results.
Kindly consider me too for this contest
Thanks in advance.
Extremely generous! Thank you for offering this up!
As for telling others, I certainly have! I was showing one of your e-books to a former co-worker and he then purchased several and we both went on to buy ‘Within the Frame’, ‘VisionMongers’ and he has “Vision& Voice” and I’m waiting for my copy from Amazon.
All great stuff!
Thanks!
Really like the blog, and plan on purchasing ebooks from Craft & Vision in the near future
Count me in as well! Love the site.

692 comments so far, and I am 693 woo hoo! I am so excited to win this CS5 master collection for the MAC even though I am a PC user with full intention on getting a MAC! Thanks David this is really what I needed. Tell Chase to have a contest for the MAC PRO so I can win that plane ticket to seattle and pick it up! Oh thanks to you too syd for making all this possible.
I have most of your books and love them. This is an awesome give away. Thank you and please count me in.
David, this is a great giveaway. The software is super but your books are better.
Wow, that’s pretty generous.
I’m one of your ebook fans. Keep ‘em coming. Your newsletter is always much anticipated. BTW, did you attend high school in Kanata and were a member of their improv team?
Wow, what an awesome giveaway David!
I love your blog, been a follower for years.
-Don
great, am in!!!
I have read your first two books and am now into Vision and Voice which is fantastic. Very interesting to see actual processing examples of yours in Lightroom. I own all of the eBooks as well. Keep the great content coming!
Winning a Master Collection would be outrageous so count me in. Hope to get lucky.
Thanks
Thank you for this fantastic giveaway and a chance to participate in it!
Awesome deal on the Craft & Vision eBooks too!
I would love this but odds are against me… but lets gamble anyways and see what happens!
Wow! Very cool! Thanks for all that you do for photography community! You are awesome!
Nice! Thanks for the opportunity. I really enjoy the ebooks. Thanks for the educational resources.
David – thanks for your vigorous voice in the world of photography.
Awesome! I am a huge fan of your e-books
Oh yeah this is the big one David, but I don’t think I want to advertise this and reduced my chances of winning. Oh well I never win anything anyway *frown* so I might as well tell the world.
I’d love to win just so I can make Adobe my bitch whenever I call for assistance, just so I can say yep, I’ve got the license for that, and that, and that, and that!
My dream has always been to accumulate every Adobe license and lord over those snooty customer service worms who make fun of my CS3 license, I just want to make those bastards crawl at my feet like the dogs they are. heehee
PS, I better not win because I just paid for Light Room 3 and CS5, so if by some inexplicably lucky roll of the dice I should be chosen, rest assured I will be getting my money back on those licenses.
Superb website, inspiring books. Have a great time in your trip and lots of good light.
Take care!
Przemyslaw
My turn. I’ve got the Drawing Eye and Chasing Look ebook. But I enjoyed most was your Within the Frame book.
Hope to win and thanks for sharing!
I have enjoyed the valuable content in your blog and book (Within the Frame is EXCELLENT!). …and this quality content is also packed in your ebooks at a great price (Magic of B/W, TEN, etc.). Thanks. I recommend them to others.
CS5 (for Mac) would be an amazing gift.
Wow, now this is a giveaway. Really enjoying Vision and Voice.
Awesome blog, awesome contest.
I have Ten and Vison is Better – both of which I highly recommend. David has the rare gift of word AND image, and it’s a delight to delve into his musings about creativity and vision.
Love your blog, keep up the good work.
Wow! This is one awesome giveaway.
love the blog, and what you’re teaching.

I have purchased a couple of the vision ebooks and found them to be inspiring and thoughtful. Keep up the great work!
Never have I had to scroll so far to get to the comment box! Just remember, David: We love you for your vision, not the goodies you bribe us with.
What a prize. Have several ebooks – not only are they beautiful, I’ve learnt a fair bit. Especially like the Black and White ones.
This is EXCELLENT!!! I’m really keeping my fingers crossed.
Well – I’ve never been disappointed from the Craft&Vision ebooks (which I something I can’t say from the paper magazines I use to buy). And that holds to regardless of any lottery prospectives
Awesome prize. Thank you for offering it.
Since downloading your ebook ‘Ten’ I see the world in a whole new way. Whatever I look at something or somebody I’m now so aware of the light. When I pick up my camera I now know in advance the image that I’m after. You call it vision. Your writings are truly inspirational. Thanks.
Well, the chance is small, but if I do not enter, the chance is null. Thanks for the opportunity.
Wow, that is indeed a big one! Good luck everyone!
Really like “The Print & The Process Series”, especially “VENICE, A Monograph” gives me inspiration to get out and try new techniques. Appreciate the giveaway which is a real cracker, so fingers crossed.
fantastic!
Count me in.
Well: All i can do is hope, but great giveaway!
Toby

Using Trial Version of CS5 Master collection for my Mac now.
If I could win the full suite that would rock.
What a great prize!
I have bought many of your e-books and those of other photographers through your blog. I have never been disappointed. Your blog rss feed is a treasure. Thanks!
Wow David, this is so generous! Thanks to Adobe as well. I was blessed to have won your Vision & Voice book a while ago.
I’ve decided to finally make the switch to Mac and I hope the second time around is just as blessed to make it less painful on the pocket!
Wow! CS5 give away is amazing.
I’ve been re-reading “Within the Frame”. It’s always an inspirational read that keeps me thinking through my image making process.
What a great giveaway! I’ve bought a number of the Craft & Vision ebooks and really like them. A good value.
Please mister random drawing script, choose me!
Hey,
This giveaway seems to be the biggest of all. Actually I am a coldfusion/flex developer based in India, I wish I could win Master collection so that I can continue my Project with ease though I like Eclipse..
I like to congratulate the website author who have chosen this killer collection, definitely your site will gain a lot of attention and is worthy.
What a great giveaway! I’m a fan of the blog and your work and am currently reading “Within the Frame”. I pretty much buy most of the Craft and Vision e-books, and am working my way through those. Thanks for all you do.
Wow, I could sell it and retire … almost
Wow I would love to win just for PS
thanks!
How to stand out in a crowd ? I think by being honest
I’m not a professional otherwise I would likely not follow your blog and would buy adobe cs5 myself.
I’m a serious photo-hobbyist who finds sparks & inspiration in the eCraft books and your blog.
Sparks are twinkling eyes in the pictures of people and the twinles it brings me to strive for more sparkling in my pictures
As you rightfully point out , it is not about the gear or the technology or the software, it’s about the creative vision which we bring to our photo’s. I would be pleased with the software but I can also llive without
David… what a great give-away! Thank you! Hope you have many great travels in the next little while… and I’m looking forward to meeting you and Jeff in Tuscany (yes, I’m signed up for your workshop next year!).
Best regards… keep up the amazing work… Stephen
Hey, that sounds nice. Traveling Asia, I mean. And winning some CS5. Thanks for all your work in the inspiration and education department. Visionmongers and your CreativeLive workshop have been great resources for me.
I am glad I came across your blog. Great images, awesome insights on photography. Currently working my way through your blog from the beginning! I learn something new with post. Keep up the great work and THANK YOU for shearing what you know with all of us.
Thanks for the inspiration David!
Thanks for such a great resource this blog has been!
and let me be the one!!
Dude! You’re crazy, my master!
David,
I came for the monthly backgrounds, stayed for the blog and vicarious adventure, moved on to three e-books–which I love, quit shopping for and buying equipment (not including a new Clik bag, which is not really equipment, right?), and now I’m begging for software! Love your approach and your presentation. All the best!
This is why I love this blog.
David,
I am in the middl of watching the Creative Live sessions which is the next best thing to attending one of your workshop trips.
You are the real deal!!

I discovered this site after reading Visionmongers and quickly purchased all the e-books which are an incredible value and a great resource. I’ve recommended them to several friends who have really enjoyed them as well.
So, I’ve been devouring Vision Mongers. I’m challenged and inspired by it! Thanks for blazing a trail…
Great giveaway! Thanks for the opportunity! Though must say, just a little bit scared about the steep learining curve if I win, but up for the challenge!
This is an amazing give away. I’m loving Vision & Voice…Thanks for sharing your wealth of knowledge.

As a new enthusiast, Within the Frame has been a guiding force for me at a critical time in my development – more important to me than any technical photography book, in fact. I cannot thank you enough for it! I re-read sections of it often to focus my work and remind myself to get lost. I look forward to reading your other books and your fine blog. And of course, btw, your work is really amazing. Many thanks!
wow great prize !
Love the b/w eBooks!
Love the ebooks and your 3 printed books.
keep up the good work, very inspirational.

Keep up the great work! Thanks!
Thank you for providing this great resource and for the incentive to spread the good word!
David Duchmin you are an inspiration to other.
$5 eBooks that cover aspects of photography other books skip. Great deal!
Hello David, I’ve purchased three of your ebooks and all of them are great but my fav is still 10 Ways…keep up the great work!
David – I so enjoyed Within the Frame. I am now making my way through VisionMongers. I am looking forward to Vision and Voice and the couple of e-books I snagged online. Thanks for the inspiration and straight talk about the industry and craft.
Count me in!
Love your books! Thank you,
Thanks for the nice opportunity and fantastic books (paper and digital)
What a great contest.. From such an inspirational photographer. The e-books from craft and vision are the best value of any book i have ever read..
Love hearing you on podcasts like TWIP and others. Great work, inspiring.
Colin Stewart
I’m reading Within the Frame right now and I was just introduced to your site and Craft & Vision – it’s been bookmarked with plans to check out several of the offerings!
I am such an amateur, but I would love this!
Thank you for the inspiration you are, your ebooks, the opportunity of this contest. I’ll be posting this on Twitter and expect that you will be getting a huge response.
I’m a devotee of your website, books, and ebooks. Great offer and thanks for sharing your vision with us.
Oh my, luck be my lady tonight…..
I have all your books and ebooks. Love your stuff and all you teach us
) Wasn’t able to watch your CreativeLive online (problems with shaw or something) but have bought the download version so I can watch it all.
I can’t tell anyone about craft & vision, but I can say this: BUY, WITHIN THE FRAME!!!
Well if you really have to, I guess you can send it to me….
Wow! This is awesome! Thanks for the tips and tricks.
thank you!
Vision and Voice products have helped me take my creative energy to a whole new level. It is a fun and amazing journey, so thanks for providing tools to the ride!
Thank you David!
The best thing about this stuff is definitely the vision. But free stuff is nice too.
flash(at)me(dot)com
In the words of marketing geeks everywhere: You’re crushing it, David.
Wow, I can’t believe it is me (if I win this). I never win anything.

Great e-books and blog posts!
David, love your books and e-books. I am yet to check out Vision and Voice but I plan to do so soon.
What caught my attention to your books and website was your photography in Within The Frame. Great work.
900 messages in about two days!!
Amazing give away David! Love your “Vision Mongers” book. It is a must have for anyone interested in a career in photography.
The books are great. Blog is great. I’m just missing the smiling guy that used to be in the banner!

jslessor@egd.com
i just bought your new book Vision and Voice! Amazon says it will be here Tuesday! Can’t wait! thanks again, David!
David, Thanks for organizing this give-away! I buy each of the Craft and Vision e-books as soon as I read about about them. No hesitation. The images are inspirational and I haven’t yet failed to learn a thing or thirty from each one. Regards,
Michael Milligan – michael-at-mjm.hk
Hi David,
This is an awesome giveaway that you have put together with Adobe. Thanks so much for doing this!
To everyone else: if you haven’t purchased any of David’s Craft & Vision e-books, you are definitely missing out. Whether you are just starting out or if you have been in the photography business for awhile, they are a very worthy read! On another note, Vision Mongers was a killer book and I’m actually going to read it again!
David, thanks for your ebooks and books, I learn something every time I read them. creativeLive weekend was priceless, and your vision driven approach is totally refreshing!!
I recommend the Craft & Vision eBooks to all of my students and fellow artists. They’re great for learning craft, sharpening the saw and nudging the gumption button.
David, I just purchased your book, Within the Frame. I can’t wait to start it. I love your blog – witty and inspiring! Thanks for the giveaway opportunity.
Hey David
Thanks for everything.
Love your commitment. Thanks!
Best regards from the polar circle in Swedish-Lapland

Managed to miss the $4 period for the latest book but will add it in to my next purchase. I bought Visionmongers some months ago and love it; now have Within the Frame and Vision & Voice and am making my way through them. Then I attended your talk at B&H (and made a slightly doofus comment) and have watched most of your podcasts but the creativelive weekend was just fantastic and I’ve downloaded it so I can keep referring back (also with the time difference and the photowalk, I knew I’d be missing a lot of the live feed). When I saw you demonstrating LR3, I knew I had to have it. Now that I’ve won in my Photowalk group, I’m hoping that my purchase turns into a freebie. David, I have to ask, could you find a way of pronouncing your name so that it doesn’t sound like you’re saying “doucheman”?
Looking forward to getting more into this blog.
Hello from Latvia! Your Venice wallpaper was stunning.
Andris
Hi David!
Just purchased Within the frame and Visionmongers, that’s how I found your website. Your books are such an inspiration to me!
This is my first week at the photography school I’m attending this year. I’ll be sure to tell the rest of my class about your books; not because I have to, but because I want to and because I think many of us will benefit a lot from reading them.
Have a great trip. I’m looking forward to seeing the inspirational images, and reading the inspirational words that result from your trip.
I hope Corwin picks a good winner (me!:))
Matt.
I’m in! (Am I in?
)
Love you books, would love them even more if I got the CS5
Learning is something that enriches your life – I love what you do and what I have learnt from you – Thank you. Peace & Good wishes.
Great giveaway! Have a great trip to Asia!
Great Manfrotto webinar the other day David. Thanks!
I bought all of your books and read them all. They are inspiring and really helped me get outdoors to take more(and better) photographs. You really show that gear is good, but vision is better.
Pleeeaaasssseeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice one David, I have been a keen follower of your work, both written & photography ever since stumbling across VisionMongers.
I keep hearing how awesome your craft & vision books are. I really need to check them out!
Love your books, your photography is amazing.
Thanks! Always awesome things going around here!
Thanks for doing this! I already let people know about your blog as it’s the only I look at in my travels.
And since you’ve helped me, I’ll offer the same back. I work as a travel guide in Italy, France, Slovenia, Croatia, Turkey, Ireland, Spain, Costa Rica, Argentina, Vietnam & Cambodia. So if you ever need a great gelateria in Florence or some ideas just drop a line.
I am even having my girlfriend fly over your new book from the states to Turkey. Couldn’t wait until December
Grazie,
Jere
Great blog… thanks!
You Rock David! I love all your e-books and can’t wait until I own an ipad to also enjoy reading them on. Thanks for all your inspiration!

Love the images from Iceland.
I’ve recommended the vision and voice e-books to many of my photo friends – now if I could just find the time to do the exercises and try all those new things I’ve learned out. Looking forward to more – especially one on how to manufacture more time…
This is such an incredible gift for someone.
A very generous prize indeed.
Yes I want to win. I also wrote book review in my blog.
Tnx for your post

I own pretty much all the download books. They are a great help.
Wow, what a generous offer.
I love your photography, your blog and your books. Always inspirational. I am looking forward to your Iceland book since I just got back myself
Man my thumbs are sooo sore! You know how long it takes to get to the bottom of these 900 + comments on an iPhone?

Gotta be in it to win it
Hey David -
Thanks for putting the ‘why’ up there with the ‘how’ and the ‘with what’ that are so prevelant. ‘Why’ is the tough question to answer, and your insights are helping me a lot!
This is brilliant! I recently got the 3-series ebooks on Black and White from the Craft & Visin site. I am currently tweeking my workflow to infuse the techniques from Book 2 and Book 3.
Awesome job! And bring home great pics from Asia!
i learned a lot from reading your e-books. Gear is good, Vision is better. : )
Hi David, I throughly enjoy all your e-books and hardcopy books that I have purchased. They offer lots of inspiration and guidance. Please continue to produce such excellent work and sharing it with your fans.
DJJC
Great prize. http://craftandvision.com/ now recommended on Facebook
I’m half way through Vision and Voice and really love the format. I really like you answer my “Why’s” more than my “How’s”. Fantastic book!
/Mikkel
Thanks David. Really learn a lot from your blog.
Love the blog, and all the ebooks… one of my main sources for learning and inspiration. Winning this would be icing on top of the cake! fingers crossed!
Can’t wait to get a peek at your Iceland images!!
Thanks for the chance. You rock!!!!!
Just reread ‘within the fram’, cover to cover..truly inspiring stuff. Thank you David!

Thank you for offering your advice and inspiration to the rest of the world.
Please count me in. Thanks Tanya
A big (possible) gift for just a few words. Thanks for giving this chance.

Been following you since your CreativeLIVE debut. Thanks for all the inspiring words and “craft” directed advise.
Your blog and books revived my inspiration to go out and shoot!
heres to hoping mine gets picked. haha.
I am 1000!!! I love the Craft and Vision e-books!
Nice one, David! Love the craft and vision ebooks and enjoyed especially the one about the transition to video.
Absolutely amazing. I guess the chances are low, but nevertheless, thanks for your great gift. The lucky person who gets it will really enjoy a superb product.
Regards,
Daniel

Good luck everyone!
I look forward to each new release in the Craft & Vision series. Keep them coming.
I love your blog and hope win this package!!!!
Awesome and very generous. I’ve enjoyed both your ten ways ebooks and am half way through Andrew’s B&W series although it was actually your physical book (Within the Frame) which introduced me to your vision.
Would love to be considered in the drawing. I really enjoy the ebooks, I recently bought about 4 of them before traveling- the ‘Drawing the Eye’ book is my favorite so far!
Cool, thanks! Huge fan of your books. Read “Within the Frame” while I was living in Thailand last year. Great stuff!

Loved your ‘Within the Frame’ series of podcasts. I began to see stuff in photos I had never seen before. It really helped my photography. Thanks.
Thanks a lot!

Hi David, I downloaded your “Chasing the Look” pdf last week and thank you so much for sharing your wisdom! Aloha, jlc
Thank you for the oppty to win. Love the journey and the inspiration I get from reading your books.
Lovely. This is just a bonus. Your blog entries and monographs are the real thing.
Keep up the great work …!
Wow, what an awesome prize.
Love this site and it’s only getting better!
can’t wait for the next book. great inspiration.
wow great give away and after spending some time looking at your ebooks I think there are several I need. hmmmm maybe the whole collection.
David, you are the man! Thanks for sharing your passion and knowledge!
Thanks for the opportunity. Id love to hear about some of the conversations you have with your clients. Non profits like free so much that id like to know how you explain to them the value of a photo. love the books too
Am thoroughly enjoying your blog, and have even passed along the link to your blog and ebooks on my FB business page. Simply in the hope that you’ll inspire my collegues the way I’ve been inspired! Thanks!
Thank you! I love your work and all the information you’ve shared!
Thank you for the great offer. You are one of the good guys and an inspiration. I have read two of your books from cover to cover: Within the Frame and Vision & Voice. Now I have my eye on your ebooks!
Sweet, Man! I have Vision and Voice waiting on my bookshelf for me to read
Thanks for the excellent offer. Great inspiration from your blog.
Just discovered your blog – some really useful technical advice and lots of inspirational photos. CS5 would sure be a nice windfall in these trying times!
Wow, a very generous offer! Love your blog, I’m always funding great tips and inspiration!
Amazing drawing Dave, just goes to show you how big an impact you’re having on the photographic community that big name sponsors start giving away this size of prize!!
Thanks for an inspirational website with many good thoughts on photography that aren’t technical. There are sometimes to much techtalk out there and little about what the photographs really communicate.
I work as a teacher in photography in Stockholm, Sweden. I teach beginners to intermediate level (one year class two full days a week). Even though I of course I teach technical basics I tend to talk more and more about what the images do to us. That’s what I find interesting about your site.
Thanks
/Bjorn
Response 1037, I’m in
Thanks for this blog. I am just returning to photography after an enormous break.
Your “non-photography” posts inspire me to take photographs more than any techy stuff ever can!
George
Wow. Always a very inspirational blog!
Ok, I’m a Craft & Vision junkie! I started off taking advantage of the discounts by purchasing five of the e-books and got hooked. Now I have all of them although I have not yet read three. I am VERY impressed with the monographs! SAFARI is just outstanding and I have used your presets more than once. Please give us more!
Wow, CS5 is a dream I can’t quite afford. I am still using an ancient version 6… As a new visitor to the site, I am very impressed with what I have seen…
Wow, how did I miss this last week? I love your ebooks and was oh so glad I had them backed up when my Macbook died last month. Still saving hard to get a replacement but I’m thankful all my important work and files like the ebooks are safe and sound in the meantime. Look forward to many more in the future. Enjoy your next trip!
Hi David,
I ‘found’ your blog via the Manfrotto pages and have since pointed friends as well as myself towards your musings. I enjoy your discussions about photography and your focus on vision rather than gear. My two bobs worth on the art discussion – through a lifetimes involvement with photography I have always considered that photography must be a seamless merging of art with craft – I have occasionally seen great art let down by poor craft – but more often seen superb craft bereft of art, and thus life. Cheers, Keith
Just reading through my hard copy of ‘making a life and living in photography and getting inspiration on how to grow my blog. Am going to get the Craft and vision app…
Thanks for the giveaway.
Loved your Creative Live session. I had bought your books before and bought the ebooks, but never put the two together before that.
Thanks for all the great work.
Just bought the “Growing The VisionMonger” ebook…. Certainly food for thought there (and work to do)
CS5…. yes please !
Love your Craft and Vision e-books and what a fantastic giveaway!
David,
Incredible giveaway. I know I’ll be buried in the masses of responses.
I have tweeted to let my little portion of the world know about Craft & Vision: http://twitter.com/clarkeac/status/23143648260
Best,
AC
Wonderful, as always!
What a generous giveaway! Have fun in Asia.
Thanks for all you’re doing David & thanks to Adobe for the support!
This is an amazing and generous giveaway. Thank you
Excellent stuff! Books, blog, video, everything! After watching you on creative live and reading your books have changed how I looked at photography!
A definite recommendation to everyone!
Great Giveaway! I have learned a lot from David’s books, he’s full of valuable information!
You’re the best, this is amazing . I also have several of your ebooks and Within the Frame. Thanks for being so generous, not only with this give away, but with all that you share.
Wow! Wow! Awesome! Did I say Wow?
Thanks!
Bernard Frangoulis
Sounds great to me
hey! thanks a lot for the giveaway ….keep up the good work
Yes!! Love the blog and ebooks!!!
The fine print….yeah, that’s what I hope to create with the CS5 Suite when I win it.
Seriously, I have read Withing the Frame, Visionmongers, Vision & Voice as well as most of the eBooks offered at your Craft & Vision website. You are a master of weaving your outstanding images with words of advice and encouragement in a conversational style. Keep them coming.
WAY COOL!!!! Great way to keep the community connected!
Whaaaat!? A chance to win CS5!! I waaaaaaaaaaaaaaant!!
I hope the draw is open to international followers. Heading to buy some ebooks right away. Cheers
Missed the iPad, looking forward to the CS5 package
Woo hoo!!
I’d love to win CS5! I’m still using CS3
Thanks for everything you do, David. I tell all my friends about all of your resources, and hopefully I’ll get to travel with you again some day.
Take luck!
Thanks for your inspirational blog!
So far I only have Within the Frame, but I am planning on buying some of the eBooks as well. I like the emphasis on creativity rather than gear.
Love you books!
And the winner is……..:0)
Wow, the chance to win the Master Collection is so great that I almost have to wright in swedish: Lottovinst!
Great lessons of photography
Wow! Incredible support from Adobe here. this is very very cool. and to top it off, I actually do tell people about the resources here all the time! Keep up the great work dude. I hope to be ableto join you on a workshop soon.
I love Craft & Vision – every time I download a book, I think I’m stealing from you. And now a giveaway!!!!!
Thank-you for sharing so much with others! I recently found your site, but I’m going to check out the ebooks right now, and I will be telling all the people that ask me, “Where did/do you learn about photography?” to have a look at your site!
Craft and Vision is amazing. I’ve never read any material that has been more motivating, and for the price, it’s an absolute steal.
I bought your book Within The Frame for my photography loving sister and fell in love with your work, your words, your vision.
Looking forward to more publications from Craft & Vision.
I recently purchased “WIthin the frame” and it has completely changed the way I view my photography. You are an incredible muse yourself DD.
My portfolio: http://www.Flickr.com/Hypercubers
Oh. I would love this software.
And I read all of your books. I keep them on my desktop, so I can open them whenever I need a bit of inspiration.
Thanks for sharing your process…
Linda

David, I just read your Book, Within the Frame. I am a rank amateur photographer who is striving to improve my skills because I, like you, have a vision. Your “list of things you care about and are drawn to” on page 11 prompted me to create my own list: old barns and dilapidated farm buildings; people in the final days of life; babies and teenagers. I’m currently running on Photoshop Elements, so winning this prize would be a dream come true! Thanks for your work!
David, just picked up your book “Within the Frame” after discovering it at the bookstore. Got home and had to look up your website to see some more of your stunning work, truly inspirational! I will be visiting your site and blog often for inspiration. Would love the software, really want to take my photography to the next level by reaching my vision with the final step – postprocessing. Thanks for the opportunity!
This is a no-brainer for me. Been reading David’s print books, eBooks, other Craft & Vision books, and watching his webinars / CreativeLIVE stuff. “Gear is good, Vision is better” and being exposed to this mantra and ideas so easily… PRICELESS.
Thanks David for all you do for the photography community.
Wow, over 1000 comments. This must be a new record.
Wow what a great prize to be offering. Cheers.
I have purchased several books now and am reading each one going through the various exercises. Great resource and fun. Gets me out with a goal and a directed focus. Keep making the books and thank you for the chance to win CS5.
Thanks David for your ebooks. Bought my first one, and certainly won’t be my last. Thanks for sharing your vision.
That is awesome. I learned so much from your CreativeLive session and have decided to go from amateur to pro.
Wow – what a generous giveaway from David and Adobe! And he is right – you should check out the wealth of resources available at the Craft & Vision Site. Invaluable! Thanks for all of the things you have taught me on my photography journey so far!
Keep up the great work. Thank you for the vision!
Wow what a great prize. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and vision with all of us. I just finished reading Within the frame and I loved it and it has inspired me to take more and different photos than I used to.
dude that is an awesome giveaway.here is hoping that i win. thanks for the opportunity.
Love your books, can’t wait to read the latest. Enjoy Asia!
A great giveaway. Not sure i’m lucky enough
I will tell others about this.
Without any hesitation, I recommend any aspiring photographer to read all of David’s books. His “Craft & Vision ebook series as well as his three published books (Within The Frame, Visionmongers and Voice & Vision) are extremely well written with each one providing a deep well of wisdom and inspiration that will take your photographs to completely new levels. Without a doubt, David’s thoughts, anecdotes and perspective on how to go about using your camera to create and capture great photographs, is worth much more than any new piece of photography gear. Buy just one of them and you will understand why.
Thank you for the opportunity. Please count me in. I hope that your commitment to the industry and those around you pays off in a big way. I know that the lessons I have learned from hearing and reading your words has greatly helped my artistic vision. Keep up the great work.
I found your blog through a manfrotto online workshop you did. I find this method of learnng in chunks with workshops and downloadable content workd best for me and the craft and vison website is just what I was looking for.
Hey David! Greetings from Brazil!
I have learned a lot from “within the frame” and your first 2 ebooks… Will soon stop and take a look at the growing resource that is craft & vision!
And what a great giveaway… CS5, wow! Also a great way to get the community to comment, heheh…
best of luck to everyone!
Free Photoshop!!? Count me in, though I hope I’ll never take photos that need postprocessing :p
Thank you for everything, your books are amazing and your CreativeLive seminar was an eye-opener.
Wow! This is great hope I win.! Craft and Vision is the best that’s why i gave all my photography books away and bought every craft and vision ebook which is more convenient for me especially stored in an ipad:)
Just stubble upon your site via twitter. Looking forward to digging in. Oh – and great promotional give away! Count me in.
hello david!
thanks for all the good work you re doing,
and for this opurtunity!
good luck for all your future projects and good luck to everyone else in this aswell…:)
Love the site. I’m in the middle of Visionmongers and it is changing my outlook on how I view photography.
Keep the excellent information coming!
um… me please!
though can my computer handle it? i’m not sure!
i do love your ebooks… really made me a fan of you and your images…
Thanks David,
Please keep up what you’re doing. The craft and vision store rocks…
What a fantastic opportunity, thank you to Adobe and to you, David!
This blog, your e-books, and your printed books have been a huge help in boosting my inner “Visionmonger”. Keep it up! Thanks David!
i discovered you on creative live and i have fell in love with you and all that you say
Would love to win this giveaway, thanks for the oppourtunity…:)
Love your work! Going to enjoy your ebooks
Worth a try…
Not too long ago I got a copy of Within the Frame. I’d seen your blog and loved both your writing style and your photography. I found the book compulsive reading and have since got your other books and some of your e-books too. Your attitude to photography is refreshing. Looking forward to downloading some of your photos to work on as I’m reading Vision & Voice. Keep up the good work.
As a newby, those 5$ ebook helps assimiled the photography world.
Thanks for writing what most of us feel!
Awesome idea!
Wow, what an awesome giveaway! I absolutely love all your e-books.
What an AWESOME giveaway! I’ll be sure to let my photog friends know about it. Here’s hoping I win!
Nice giveaway.
Thanks. Plesae count me.

Wow, this is great! I hope to win the copy as I can’t afford the software myself. It would do lots for my future plans. I have every e-book that isn’t video related. Thanks for your insight and inspiration. By the way,I have all your books as well.
Thanks…
Your eBooks and other material rock David! Thanks for the inspiration and words of wisdom on vision! You have a unique and personal approach that has helped a lot of people with their vision.

Thanks for the great give away offer.
Thanks for the give-away. Awesome stuff!
Wow, what a response you already have, but I am taking me chances to win this fabulous prize.
I couldn’t agree more on your quote “gear is good, vision is better”, love to read your first book “Within the Frame”, very well written and so inspiring.
Thanks David.
What a great contest! Will there be a skill-testing question about one of your eBooks for the winner? I’ve bought a few and love the creative exercises you throw in…lots of practical hands-on fun. Thanks

Cheers,

Awesome giveaway! Thank you!
Just discovered your site. Looking forward to checking it out!
Looking forward to winning that software too!!
So far I have “The Magic of Black and White – Part one” and I am in the process of reviewing the “Iceland” Book. Immensely enjoying both…
Hi from the Island! No not Iceland, the one near your house. Great work, David. Loving your e-books …must…buy..more.
Mark Yager
leftcoastmark@gmail.com
Looking forward to the Iceland book. I did a 10K there in Aug. 2008. Stunning and inspiring country.
Thank you for all your work.
I’m looking forward to following you… Love The Colours of India, simply magic.
The new Iceland ebook looks great. Thanks
Me too feeling LUCKY!
I like Davids images and his vision!
No need to beg for the bonus points. I am fanatically downloading his ebooks. Run and buy your own copies before David really understands that he is selling these at a ridiculously low price
David’s brilliant writing style and beautiful images have been an inspiration to me to become a better photographer. I’ve just bought eight of the eBooks at Craft & Vision and am looking forward to reading through them and improving my craft!
Fingers crossed on this giveaway – there surely is a lot of competition!
Thanks David, for challenging us to see more, capture more and show more.
Wow!
Thanks David!
I have a number of your books – they are great!
Great giveaway!
David, thanks for the site and the opportunity!
David, I just left a review on the Iceland Monograph. Downloaded it, read it, loved it! The library is complete until you release the next one.
Thanks for providing the opportunity for someone to win the CS5 Master Collection. As with others, I wish everyone luck, but naturally hope that I’m chosen.
David, I enjoy reading your blog and your eBooks. They are all very inspirational. Keep up the great work!
I’m new to the photography world and have just finished reading Within the Frame. Loved it! I can’t wait to check out all of your e-books on the Craft & Vision website.
excellent blog, goes well w/coffee in morning
What an awesome giveaway! Absolutely LOVE your photography and your vision. Have Within The Frame and am now getting into your ebooks – just finished Drawing The Eye – delicious!
Thanks for the chance at some free stuff. Love the $5 ebooks too.
Thanks,
Greg
Your site is one of the few that I keep coming back to… thanks!
Obviously people love you David and love free stuff… I wonder which they love more…
Thank you for your insightful blog. I have learned a lot by reading your articles but I have learned even more by looking at your photos. I aspire to be as talented a photographer one day as you are.
Would love to travel with you some day. Thanks for the opportunity to learn so much from your great work!
Thanks for this great giveaway, David! I am a poor, starving photographer and could really use this software. I promise I would never use it for evil, only for bringing images meant to inspire and elicit emotion into the world. Namaste.
Thanks for the great site!
I’ve just read both your VisionMonger and Within the Frame books. Particularly enjoyed Within the Frame. After reading it, I found your blog and bought the Chasing Reflections ebook. Really enjoyed your posts about Iceland, it looks like an amazing place.
Well, I LOVE your books. Really. No joke. I have (and have read) both Within the Frame and Vision Mongers as well as a few others from you Craft and Vision series.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and heart with us through your blog and books! :c)
Great !

Great giveaway too- thanks for offering it. Good luck everyone!
Nice website, amazing offer too, what can I say but “THANKS”- good luck to everyone!
After over a year of being a silant member, and reading each and every post, what makes me jump in and leave a comment is money… Shame on me…
BUT
I love this blog. The only one i’m reading regularly. And i own most of the ebooks, and read most of what i own. My favorite so far is VIENICE. Absolutely a must. Just bought ICELAND, and looking forward to read it.
Thanks for the inspitation!
Should you ever come to a photographic tour in Israel- let me know
Thanks for what you do. It inspires me to look at the world, and what I am doing in it, a little differently.
I’m so inspired by reading your blog and viewing your photographs. The Craft & Vision e-books are also helpful. Thank you for the generosity!
I have six of David’s wonderful ebooks and am just about to buy two more. They are a fantastic value at $5 each.
You’ve inspired me to get back to what I love. Photography. Thank you.
Thanks for all the wisdom you have given!!!
Some great photography. I wish I was able to take photos that great. The World Vision pictures were particularly moving.
Let’s see more Hawaii pics!
I found your book Within The Frame in a Sydney bookshop – never heard of you or your work before that. What a great and inspiring book. Thank you.
Count me in on this! David,I love your work and your books! Your blog is always an inspiration!
I love Adobe.Thank you
This is a great give away, thanks David and Adobe
This is such a great giveaway! I just finished reading your book The Visionmongers which I loved! I was so inspired! It is what has brought me to your blog. It made me want to pick up my camera and begin exploring. There were so many helpful ideas too. I’m now reading Within The Frame since I had never read it before. I have to say that I am so inspired by your images. They make me want to go visit these places you’ve been to.
Many blessings!
Thank-you for this wonderful giveaway and also for the fantastic monthly wallpaper!
Really appreciate how you’ve shared your passion in both print and online. I have to say you’ve inspired me like no other – thanks! Now if only I had a suite of powerful software to help realize my vision…..
Thanks, David and Adobe!!
Wow, that’s a big one ! Thanks for everything you do.
I actually dropped by to tell you how much I am enjoying Vision and Voice. An inspirational read indeed. Now that I’m here, I would certainly love to win that excellent piece of software. Thanks for doing this, David. You just landed in Hong Kong as I write this
.
wow, this is great. Thanks!
Your work is inspiring. I am particularly drawn to your work with World Vision. Thank you!
love the craft and vision series. thanks!
Love the site… and the resources. I purchased the most recent ebook and I believe it is the best one so far.
(and I hope your trip goes well… and safely)
Take care!
What a wonderful site. Such creative inspiration!
Hi David,

Awesome contest! Good luck to everyone!
Wow, some great gift for the lucky person. Thank you for this initiative!
Thanks for thinking and writing about my favourite place…where the art and the technology meet and creativity can flourish. You are a constant inspiration to me as I struggle to achieve my vision.
I love the e books. I’ve purchased just about all of them, and have read most of them. I enjoy re read them when I need a boast or rethink an idea. Love the price.
Wow, that will be nice to win the CS5 Master Collection!
Since I found about the Craft & Vision eBooks I think I purchased most of them. It is hard to beat at $5 and even better when they just come out and are discounted to $4.
Great, thanks.
Please count me in.
john. d
I have bought 9 of the ebooks from the Craft & Vision site and found all of them to be very worthwhile purchases. They are very inexpensive but provide valuable insight information from expert photographers. Well Done.
I need an excuse to buy a new computer…
I love the Ebooks. Just purchased the Iceland one. Great inspiration and practical information. Thanks!
Thanks for the inspiration… great reading. Love your books and e-books.
Sure, that would be great!
Good luck to everyone.

I jst came accross this site while i was searching online for Adobe Collection.
i m impressed by the contents available.
Moreover,
“September Giveaway – CS5 MASTER COLLECTION!” sounds Gr8.
Thank U for Giving Away
The Gift of a Life Time…
I hope U will keep giving away the GIFTS of such sort in FUTURE too.
WOW! This is just a great Give-Away!
And since I’m leaving a comment here anaway, I might as well tell you here (on the slim chance you actually get through all the comments before mine) that “Within The Frame” really changed my relationship with photogaphy. Before I tried bulid up my craft to perfection, thinking then I’ll finally get satisfaction from my own photographs.
Now I know I was looking in the completely wrong direction!
Thank You for showing me the right door!!!
P.S. I would have written an e-mail the day I finished reading the book, but, you know, that’s kind a geeky..
Wow! What an incredible giveaway!!! Love your e-books and your blog.
Great eBooks on real world photography.
The 20% discount on the entire collection is a bargain.
This sounds like a Sweet Chicken Deal!
I’m working my way through these eBooks. I love them! “10″ and “10 more”, “The Magic of B&W” series and “Iceland” have been very enjoyable. Like “Within the Frame”, I’m inspired by them and intimidated. Vision and creativity have always been the hardest parts of photography for me.
David, thank you for publishing great books and a great blog. Just the inspiration I need to re-start my long-abandoned photography career. Winning this package would be cool, too!
What more can i say, so many great comments
I’d love to join the throng with my fingers crossed to be the oh so lucky one.
Feeling jealous of your trip to Asia
(is on my “bucketlist’ )
Enjoy Kind Regards Rick
Um, Mine? Hahaha. Thanks as always for a great blog.
Thanks David.
Ooh, would love love love this! Fingers crossed.
I love your style of teaching and your photography. From you I have learned many tricks and want to say thanks for that and the inspiration I draw from your work. I think all will agree that we have already won with your instructions, but having the proper tools is always a good thing too.
Thanks again and Godspeed on your journey.
Best regards, Joann
Wow – I’d love to move on from CS3.
Thanks for the opportunity here.
Thanks for the chance.
David
You have done it again! Thanks for this amazing opportunity! Your print books have been invaluable to me and your Craft and Vision products look great on my iPad. I already tell everyone I know about your site and products and will continue to do so!
Brian
Pretty Amazing, David, and very generous. I been reading your Iceland and Greeland stuff. Very good. Wonderful photographs.
Charlie
Really liked the article about art vs craft. Thanks for keeping up the good work.
Thank you for this great opportunity! It would be amazing to win!
what a great giveaway. hope i win.
Love your book, thanks for giving back!
Actually, all I am after is LR. but my mom always told me “Never look a gift horse in the mouth”
Hi.
This is a big contest! I have a dream!
Good luck!
I just started reading Visionmongers last night. It is truly inspiring and I am so excited to continue doing what I’m doing – working on escaping the fuzzy cubicle and becoming a pro photog…currently enrolled at the Center for Digital Imaging Arts at Boston University in Washington, DC.
Thanks for offering such a cool giveaway!!
Alright everyone, c’mon, group hug!
Love the books.
Wow. This is awesome. I’ve just found your blog and look forward to reading everything and following along. Thanks so much.
I’m in!
I have bought all the Craft & Vison eBooks and am still working my way through them. I also have all your print books and will pick up Vision and Voice when I see it in my local bookstore.
Count me in too!
Thanks, David.
Love the new ebook, Iceland. Perhaps the best one yet. Working through Vision and Voice now. Hope you have a great and safe trip.
Its quite refreshing to see someone with a passion for the craft who creates images with vision and not relying on equipment.Well done.
An amazing bundle with so many possibilities. Thank for the chance at this. You rock dude.
You are certainly an inspiration to me, thanks for the chance to enter this amazing draw!
Thanks! Keep the E-Books Coming, I love them!
I think your eBooks are a great concept at a great price. I’m working on putting your ideas into practice.
Thanks for sharing your vast knowledge with many eager minds!
As a novice photographer, it’s hard to find books that actually walk you through a process unashamedly rather than leaving you feeling like you need to be a professional photographer just to have the privilege of reading the book. Not to mention the price. Some tomes cost $55 and have one iota of the value of a C&V Ebook.
Amazing content, clear delivery and an unbeatable price. How could you NOT buy each and every single one?
Count me in!
Looking forward to the Liguria workshop next spring. Cheers.
We have a winner!
Nice one. Still working with CS.
Loving the work, giveaways are good too
Wow, I can not believe it: This giveaway is really fantastic. Thanks to you and to Adobe! Congratulations on your beautiful photographs and books really ridiculous price.
Wow. That would be really useful.
I’ve purchased a few ebooks from C&V and have been pleasantly surprised with each one. =)
Awesome
What a fantastic offer from a fantastic photographer. And this blog is also … fantastic.
Thanks David
just wanted to say thanks for inspiring me to be the best photographer i can be…
Sweet, still haven’t checked out cs5, maybe this is my chance! =)
Love how you focus on the vision side of things, something so few blogs/photography resources do.
Thanks,
Brian
Great blog bought 2 books loving them
Sorry my email address is myronjones@pgbizness.com
Awesome contest! I think I have a crush on David duChemin from the first day I read one of his ebooks. Maybe he will be the one able to allow my creativity to blossom through photography.
)
Thank you David!
(And, of course, I love you
thanks for all the insight into your work. i really have enjoyed your ebooks.
rob
This is an amazing giveaway. Keep up the good work and enjoy your trip to Asia.
David,
I’ve heard you on the podcasts, your own and as guest and your vision is truly unique. What inspires me most about you is not only the effort you put into your photography, but the effort you put in with people. If there were more people like you in this world – it would be a much better place.
I’ve been following your blog, and have read your e-books (I can’t believe we can have that much insight for only $5). I’ve been shooting for a year now, but only through you I’ve been trying to create my own vision.
I love photography!
Such a refreshing perpective to photography … inspires even the newbie to go out and have fun trying out their creativity!
Hi, read your books, follow your blog avidly. Working at meshing business, craft and vision with clients requests. One day we will travel together.
Regards,
Tony Evans. Singapore
I was looking for histogram tips for my EOS and found your’s posted on the site. It’s exactly what I was looking for. Simple and to the point. I bookmarked the page for next time.
Thanks
Stephen Labuschagne, South Africa
Very generous… Love the blog and love VM!
I just found this blog last week. It’s provides excellent inspiration and asks thought provoking questions. I bought one e book and, based on what I’ve already seen and read, will buy more.
Thanks to all involved,
mark
Wow! This is amazing. Photoshop & VM are a perfect match. Thanks for all you have contributed to the photography community.
The ebooks are great. The inspiration found in them is wonderful. I’m reading through the Vision Monger book right not. the Growing the Vision Monger ebook is a perfect companion to it.
This is one helluva way to give back!!! Amazing offer!!!
Thank you,
Rob
P.S. The ebooks rock. Love the vision love the art.
The B&W iPad books are really good — inspiring. Thanks!!
-Michael Patrick Knox
Very cool
Fingers crossed!
Dave, remember when I told you how much I loved the E-books, and the one thing that I thought could POSSIBLY top the Craft & Vision Collection would be the Adobe CS5 Master Collection? I’ve been thinking it’s about time to do that comparison. You know…for science.
So, yeeaaaaah…
Hope you’re well…thanks as always!
This is such a generous offer. I really enjoy returning to Pixelated Image every few days for your updates. I also enjoy reading the eBooks – very insightful advice.
Cheers,
Francis.
Thanks David. I continue to be challenged by your blog and eBooks.
David, your words and images continue to inspire me. I’ve started teaching a photography class at my local library and I’ve encouraged all the students to buy your ebooks. They are fantastic.
David,
Thanks so much for this opportunity, I wish you great sucsess in the future.
Ron
Love the e-books!
The e-books and website are inspiration and motivational. The books, advice and teachings are worth far more than the $5 cost of the books.
Thanks for the chance.
Very generous giveaway. Good luck to everyone in the running!
Thank you for all that you do, David! Your photography is inspirational and touching, and your gift to us with your blog and your books is amazing. After reading your blog for a while, I’ve picked up “Within the Frame” and several of your ebooks and find them all exceptionally well written, educational and inspirational. It is so refreshing to read about the art, vision, communication and humanitarian aspects of photography, which so many books on photography lack. Thank you for sharing with us, and for letting us get a glimpse of the world through your eyes.
Chris
Woot giveaways!
Portable affordable books. It doesn’t get any better.
Pick me! Pick me! Jebus, this is definitely one way to get a boatload of comments. Good luck to everyone.
Wow, not only inspiring people, but giving away the tools to help people reach their imaginations!
You inspire.
Thanks for the great site and the unbelievable giveaway.
I am SOOOO leaving a comment.
What a generous prize!
Great, 1 chance on 2000, just leaving a comment, I take it. Thanks for this great site.
Pixelatedimage is a daily addiction. Craft and Vision is a break through in infomational / motivational photographic communication!
Thought provoking and motivational.
Keep making a difference.
I have four of the Craft and Vision books. If you need something to make you stop and think about how you take your pictures…this is the first place you should stop. This series will change the way think about capturing what you see…not just taking a picture.
I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again WTF is the best book I have read since Galen Rowell was with us. David has taken over where Galen left off and I mean that as the best compliment I could give.
Thanks David can’t wait for the next book.
Wayne
Great prize! Thanks so much for all the great stuff you put out there.
About half way through Within The Frame and reading pieces of Vision Is Better when the time allows! My photography eye is now rejuvenated and inspired. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and insights!
Thanks for your blog and books David – I love getting my photograph fix on your blog! Your book Within The Frame challenged and improved my photography SO much! Keep up the great work inspiring amateurs like me to get better at our craft
You are very generous David. Thank you for all the advice and inspiration you pass along to us, your readers.
Your photography and writing have inspired me to pick up the camera again after years of neglect and to start looking for my vision. Thank you so much.
Thanks for the fantastic offer, love the ebooks! They’ve changed the way I take photos
I love your photos! Your pictures inspire me of buying a DSLR but I could not afford right now to buy one. Anyway, thanks for the chance to win the Adobe CS5 Master Collection!
That’s a lot of comments for this one. Thanks David and Adobe for offering a chance to win CS5.
Wow…
That’s mine !!! just me :-”
but hope best for All
Thank for the focus you have on the photog’s vision. this needs to be front ands center, craft happens after vision!
Thank you for the opportunity.
David, I just picked up your books Within the Frame and Vision Mongers at PSW in Vegas. Finished the first and am in the middle of the second. Thank you so much. These books have been hugely inspirational. I can’t wait to see what else you have to offer. You have really helped me refine my vision. I really don’t know how to thank you. Oh and thank you for offering such amazing giveaway opportunities.
I’ve had at least one of your books on my coffee table for well over a year…just finished “10″ and downloading another now…and as a result of your inspiration I just said YES to a Thailand trip with an NGO doing work in Burma! I never thought I could do it…but you’ve helped convince me that I can! Thank you, thank you!
I read Within The Frame last year and this is how I discovered David. That book gave me a lot of inspiration to improve my photography, so the logical step for me was to follow David via RSS feeds. I have purchased at least five of the e-books, including the three about black and white photography by Andrew Gibson. I love them all. Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge and passion at such a small price.
hi all
i’m from iran
My current favorite is the Iceland eBook. Iceland is a place I would like to visit one day. So far I only saw the exquisite beauty of this land on nature films, and now on David’s photographs. It would be worth to look at this book just for the photographs, but I truly enjoy the part where we can look into the process.
Learning how the photographs were taken to reflect best the atmosphere of the landscape is very helpful. It helps to bridge the gap in our knowledge about how to create the best image possible about what’s in front of us.
Thank you for adding this beautiful book to the eBook collection.
Reading Ten Ways to Improve Your Craft. Like it. Recommend it.
Love your ebooks, have several of them. Thank you!
Thanks for the chance, David. And for the books: I did already spread the word… inspiring work you do and thank you for sharing lots of knowledge.
I am inspired by your photos.
I get to see things in a different perspective. Who would’ve thought a lamp post can hold such great beauty? That is photography. It adds meaning to simple things.
As David says, you are not taking a picture, but presenting YOUR story/message! Products like Adobe’s will help you and me present our message or story… GEAR IS GOOD, VISION IS BETTER!
Print books, e-books, giveaways. . . Some kind of philanthropist! Cheers to you, David. Your books, images and virtual words inspire me.
Just the Photoshop would suite me creatively just fine, but if you insist, I’ll collect the whole thing.
Wow! What a crazy insane giveaway!!
David, your work is very inspiring. I have a copy of “Within The Frame” and it is a very helpful resource. I would love to win the giveaway.
looks like i’m coming in late & squeezing in the back row
wish i were were you in india david…thanks always for your inspiration & generous heart!
Hello David,
Have all your books and e-books. Absolutely love your writing style…it feels like you are writing and talking directly to the reader. A very generous being who has the ability to share his well earned knowledge and skills and gives inspiration and thought provoking ideas to explore all with a sprinkle of good humour! Thank you.
I didn’t know anything about technique when I first picked up a camera. After reading four of the awesomely cheap ebooks, I am well on my way to developing my own vision. They are easy to read/understand and are extremely informative in a practical way. If you haven’t bought any of them…DO IT! You are stupid to pass up years worth of information and knowledge for 5 bucks.
David,
I love all your ebooks and regular books as not only do they have a wealth of information and great photographs but more importantly, they are all challenging us to quit looking at gear and wishing what we don’t have and getting out there and making photographs with what we have. The ebooks (and other books) are the best money I’ve spent on anything photography related.
Love the blog, David. It’s easy to be inspired when browsing through your photographs.
David – I enjoy your blog and your ebooks. Thanks for sharing…
David,
Thanks for all you do … Creative Live, the blog, ebooks, and this giveaway. You are (as your first page says) using your powers for good.
Thanks for the generosity of opening up your world to make us all better.
David, I am constantly inspired by your work and your articles – they are really helping me find my own vision for my work! Thanks!!!
Wow, that’s an awesome (and very useful) software suite to do a giveaway with. May I also say the photo under the “Beyond Craft” blog post looks stunning.
That sounds great!
I’ve been a fan of the e-books for a while now (I know them from the digital photography school site), and until now I payed more attention to the blog and I found this post! I hope I’m not too late to be entered in the giveaway.
From now on I’ll add this blog to my RSS feed =D
Hi, after navigating the site and reading the comments here I’m interesting in exploring the ebooks. I’m entering the world of photography and they look like a great source of information.
Also wining the Adobe SW might not be bad at all.
If I win the Adobe software I will create art from a pen cam.
While I recognize that the intention of your blogs is for regularly scheduled education and inspiration, I tend to use your blogs to get past the “Ugh! Can I really do this?” moments…the metaphorical 2nd cup of coffee on those tough-to-motivate days. (hence the last minute entry as I am in the midst of one of those moments)
So, thanks for the giveaway opportunity and keep the inspiration coming.
Nice images. And a great give-a-way.
While I have bought all of the e-books, Ten & Ten More remain the ones that I return to time after time to do the exercises to get out of a rut. I have gifted these e-books for encouragement to fellow shooters and it works for them too. Thanks for the chance at the giveaway – I hope I’m the lucky one!
i was very inspired by your workshop on vision at CreativeLIVE. it was awesome so thanks for that one!
