Dibs on Atlanta Ben seminar!
Watching Matt’s Landscape Photography class would be great since I primarily also enjoy landscape and travel photography. Greetings, Frank.
Would love to get the Basic Landscape rental!
Was at your seminar in Livonia yesterday. Thoroughly enjoyed the whole day. It was very entertaining and I learned a lot ! You kept my attention the whole day, which is no easy task lol. Looking forward to making it to another when you are in the area again. Now I just have to practise what you preached !! Thanks again Barb
Put me down for Scott’s Boston stop!
I would love to win the rental of Matt’s Landscaping Photography class. I’ve caught the Landscape and Travel photography bug pretty hard and would love to sharpen my skills.
Thanks for making this available in this contest.
Lots of great stuff today. Wow the photowalk package is awesome.
Would love to win Matt’s class, thanks!
Landscape Photography class rental please!
I want to see Matt’s class!
I would love to win anything! I just want to learn!
Please, please pick me for the One Light, Two Light with Joe McNally on Oct 23. Watched the class already, would like to see it LIVE.
Woo Hoo Free Stuff Thursday! Makes staying up way too late last night not feel quite so bad. I would love to see Joe McNally in Denver, CO. Have a great day!
I’d certainly enjoy the landscape class.
I’d love to win Matt’s class!
DC still gets no mention/love for Scott’s Shoot LIke a Pro Tour. Luckily I’m pretty sure he is still coming since I have a ticket. You are still coming? Right Scott?
That was totally my bad. Not sure how I missed putting that in there before, but thanks for mentioning it. I’ve added it in and it will be included in future posts :-)
No problem. I really don’t want to call out another Brad on a typo. There’s few enough that we need to stick together.
Signed up for Matt’s class in Portland. Looking forward to it.
Couldn’t be better unless it was free!
One light two light in Orlando would be great!
I want Matt’s class
Shoot Like a Pro – Boston. Thanks.

That Photoshop Design Challenge looks like a great way to test your skills in composition. I wish had the skills to even try! I watched Matt’s beginner’s class last night and I was surprised at how much I had written down as tips and tricks; I have been shooting landscapes for at least the last decades.
Shoot Like a Pro Tour ticket in DC would be a treat! Thanks!
Boy, I’d love a free ride to the Boston seminar…not that it’s not worth every penny, but I’m just sayin’…
