patricklavoie Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 <p>I come to Photo Net for the past 11-12 years. I enjoy it and i like the way it is. I became a member 10 years ago and i think, by paying my subscription i would help Photo Net get better, add new features and stay alive (maybe they don't need my help?! but i like to think they do) for many years. And becoming a member have its advantage of course.. so why not!<br> <br /> That say, for this Holiday <strong>i would like to offer 4 one year subscription as a gift</strong> to people who don't have one. For those of you who come here, ask questions...and are not paying yours for whatever reasons ; )<br> <br /> + this year, Photo.Net is offering a 1 year membership to Popular Photography magazine (hopefully this deal will still be avaible on december 25th?)<br> <br /><br /><strong>I will pick 4 random name from this post December 25 2010</strong>. Simply put your name in this post, no questions ask, pure chance if you got picked.<br /><br />That's my way of showing my appreciation to this forum, and to make my world a better one...imagine if you had the chance to offer something to a perfect stranger, how happier would you feel after! pay it forward....<br /><br />Merry Xmas, Hanuka, Noel, Feliz Navidad and any other celebration you might celebrate to all of you :)<br /> <em><br /></em><br /> <em>* if you can post image that will make this post even more interesting to look at.. nothing to do with who will get picked, but since its a photo forum.. why not make a effort ; )</em><br /> <em><br /></em><br /> PATRICK LAVOIE<br />RETOUCHEUR PHOTO / PHOTO RETOUCHER</p> <blockquote><h2>ADMIN EDIT</h2> <p>In addition to Patrick's offer, two more subscriptions have been offered anonymously by photo.net users. I also will chip in two more subscriptions, bringing the total to 8 that Patrick will give away. -Josh</p></blockquote> <blockquote><h2>ADMIN EDIT #2</h2> <p>Another 4 subscriptions have been donated anonymously. This brings the total to 12 people that Patrick will be selecting. -Josh</p></blockquote><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leslie_cheung Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 <p>First impression, Montreal was quite nice, possibly in my top 5 in the whole western hemisphere. I was there less than a week...I took this snap while taking a quick afternoon scroll via the metro. It was the apex of my time in Montreal...<img src="http://static.zooomr.com/images/10126644_8017f54627_o.jpg" alt="" width="700" height="467" />. <br> ...back lit flare and all. </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gordonjb Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 <p>Patrick,</p> <p>Don't have one, not necessarily looking to get one , however I think it is a terrific tradition which you carry on with this annual offer. Although I only lurk on this forum, I've been doing so for years. Thanks to your ongoing generosity with sharing your time, your knowledge and your experience, I have learned a lot from reading your posts. Thanks and Happy Holidays.</p> <p> </p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pcnilssen Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 <p>Patrick, this is a very nice offering. I have learnt so much from you and other members, and I have tried to answer a few questions myself - however my knowledge is quite limited to the vast expertise here. Please count me in (I am at the office now - can't post an image)</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
