Giving stuff away!  Congratulations to <a href=\"http:\/\/danigirl.ca\/blog\/2010\/07\/14\/wheeee-another-winner-another-guest-post-and-another-canadian-family-subscription-to-give-away\/comment-page-1\/#comment-188871\">Krista<\/a>, yesterday&#8217;s winner of the Canadian Family magazine subscription.  Yay!<\/p>\n<p>I still have two subscriptions to give away, one for today and one for tomorrow.  Tomorrow, I&#8217;m going to re-enter everyone who has been eligible for the giveaways so far this week, so you&#8217;ve still got a fresh chance even if you didn&#8217;t win so far!  <\/p>\n<p>If you would like an entry into today&#8217;s draw for a subscription to Canadian Family, leave me a comment describing a photograph that&#8217;s meaningful to you and why.  Did you take it?  Is it of you or someone you know? Why is it meaningful?  I think this is important because we can get really wrapped up in details like white balance and saturation and megapixels and forget the real reason we value photographs &#8212; because of how they make us <em>feel<\/em> and because they help us capture a fleeting moment in time.<\/p>\n<p>Once again, here&#8217;s the fine print:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\nToday&#8217;s giveaway is for one one-year subscription to Canadian Family magazine.<\/li>\n<li>To enter, leave a comment on this post describing a photograph that is meaningful to you.<\/li>\n<li>Entries must be received by 3 pm on Friday 16 July 2010.<\/li>\n<li>Winners will be chosen using the random number generator at random.org from eligible entries on Thursday 16 July 2010.<\/li>\n<li>You must leave a valid e-mail address and allow me to share your contact information with Canadian Family magazine to arrange for the subscription delivery.<\/li>\n<li>The winner will be contacted via e-mail and posted here.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>I&#8217;m looking forward to reading your answers to this one!  (And, now I know why I don&#8217;t have more than one blog.  As much fun as this has been, getting two blog posts out every day has been a bit of a challenge!!)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I really like today&#8217;s guest post over at Canadian Family&#8217;s Family Jewels blog.
