Thanks to all your support I’m VERY close to reaching the top ten, roughly 20 votes away at the time of this writing. I’d like to thank you all for your past support and ask for your continued support over the next few days as the last day to vote is November 22nd. You do have to register, you do have to have a Canadian address, but each time you vote you also get a chance to win a laptop/dslr prize package from the Globe and Mail.

You can vote for me here:

You can either comment on this post that you’ve voted or email me to be entered in a thank you draw for an 11×14 print of your choosing.

Thanks again and hope to be sending Olympic photos your way in February!

A short while later I received another email wondering if I would send a number of images I’d taken recently and he’d feature it in a gallery on the site. Definitely didn’t expect front sports section exposure (was one of the top stories for a good portion of the afternoon/evening) as well as a featured spot on the MMA page of the sports section.

Thanks for the feature Chris!

You can vote daily and each vote counts as a ballot to enter a voter draw of a laptop/dslr prize pack. It’s been a little over a week and with your support I’m over half way to tenth spot on the list.
