Frank Doorhof’s book would be awesome!
Frank – I would love to see you add your workshop to PS World!

Frank Doorhof rocks! Would love his book.
the book sounds awesome!
Franks Book would be awesome!

Please send Frank’s book my way :)
Book me, please!
I would love to win anything!
Frank’s book would be my choice :-
I reeeeally wish I were going to PSW! I hope to be able to make it to the next one in the fall. Will it be in Vegas again or will you make me the happiest girl in the world and hold it in California? Hmm? ^_^
Since you’re giving things away here… I could use Frank’s book! I’ve really enjoyed his courses on KelbyOne so far. To be honest, I don’t think I’ve watched any courses that I didn’t like on the site ^_^ Thanks for the killer content.
This book would be very helpful since after a year of learning photography, I seem to be drawn to environmental portraits and I’ve got a lot to learn.
Ben Willmore is one of the best instructors I’ve ever seen. I’d love to spend a day learning from him in San Francisco.
Already in DC so would love to go to the DC seminar.
Would love to win Jennifer Wu’s class
Please put my name in the fish bowl for a chance to win photoshop creativity in Chicago! Thanks for the opportunity.
Is this the way to enter?
Frank’s book, “Mastering The Model Shoot” would be nice! Thank you.
Hoping to win the class “Photographing the Moon”
I would l-o-v-e to win Jennifer Wu’s class, Photographing the Moon, Stars, and Milk Way! We’re planning on travelling to Utah, and think this would really help.
Astral photography! What an out of this world shoot… Sorry I had to say it.
INDIANAPOLIS DUDE!
Just upgraded my equipment and want to try my hand at astrophotography. How could I pass up a chance for a free class?
I would love to see RC in Hartford! It would be my first time.
Would be thrilled with the model book!
Would be great to see RC in Washington DC.
You’d learn more about astrophotography from a site like http://www.astropix.com/HTML/I_ASTROP/TOC_AP.HTM
Although I’d love for more people to get interested in AP. Maybe we can get more people to combat light pollution which is really the product of fear than safety/need.
Would make great use of this book ;)
Will be at PSW in Atlanta this year, can’t wait.
A free ticket to Ben in Chicago please! Thanks.
I love astrophotography so I would be thrilled to win the rental of Jennifer’s class!
Cheers!
i wish coud get free stuff
