Hello and Congratulations!



Your photo has been selected as one of the lucky semi-finalists in Canada for the Metro Global Photo Challenge! We had nearly 11,000 photos entered in the contest so even getting this far is quite the feat.



Starting today – your photos are going to be voted on by the general public – The photo with the most votes in each category will be deemed the finalists for Canada and will then compete on the global stage against finalists from around the world!



Your job now is to tell everyone you know to go online to METRO Photo Challenge: Vote and to vote for your photo!





Your photo will be on display at a special two week exhibition at the West Edmonton Mall starting on November 16th 2009 – please send me the highest resolution version of your photo so we may get it printed and framed for the display. I need your photos sent to me no later than November 4th 2009.



If you happen to live in Edmonton or will be in Edmonton on the 16th of November please let me know as we are having an opening night soire and would love for you to be in attendance.



Can you also please confirm which city you currently reside in?



Thanks and good luck!!

You already know you got my vote.

Your drop shots still amaze me. I've yet to try a drip shot at all, much less one with a image in it.
