Thursday Thirteen #24

Thirteen reasons you should enter my Self Portrait Competition.

1. There are only two entries so far. There’s a good chance of winning!

2. You’ll get a choice of prize, including actual things or BE credits.

3. Competitions are fun.

4. It’s been running for ages, it’s gotta end sometime.

5. You’ll make me smile :)

6. You’ll keep me young. I’m not sure how but something’s got to help, I had so many grey hairs yesterday I had to attack my head under the fluorescent lights in the bathroom.

7. You’ll make me feel better about me. I feel a bit stupid; I left my wallet at home this morning and found out when I got to the station, I had to walk back home and get it.

8. You get to be creative or not, whatever you like.

9. You can make a new portrait or you can dig through your old photos. Looking through old photos can be fun!

10. If you don’t enter then it won’t be much of a competition.

11. You might inspire me to be more creative. I haven’t posted on my photoblog in a little while, because of a mixture of lack of inspiration and lack of time.

12. I inspired Edwin to blog again and his first entry in a year is his entry to the competition! :grin:

13. If I get enough entries I could do something cool with them like next week’s TT or maybe a collage, some kind of tribute to bloggers who entered.
