If You’ve Ever Asked Me To Review Your Photos, Here’s A Chance — Photo Contest + Camera Bag Giveaway

Photo by Erik Hecht.

[UPDATE: Just returned from a job in Belize and damn…you guys have been busy! 2,000 comments/entries in a week! I’ve been checking out the work -there is some great stuff. TODAY IS THE LAST DAY TO SUBMIT AN ENTRY (April 24). Any entries after today (at midnight) will miss the deadline and not be considered. Standby for the judging – it’s going to take me a while to get through all these! Thanks for paying attention!]

Hey photo friends, a few weeks ago my staff video guru Erik and I shared a glimpse into an ideal everyday walk-around camera kit. It’s a kit that Erik uses everyday and one that I beg/borrow/steal when not on assignment. Well the good folks over at ThinkTank took note of the love we showed for their Retrospective line of camera bags and sent the studio three of them to do with them whatever we choose. Just so happens we have plenty of camera bags already (2 of the exact models they sent us…), so we want to give these badass bags away to you. So here’s what we’re gonna do:

We wanna see your street photography. Your best everyday photos from being out in the world, covering the earth and actively pursuing the unexpected. Post links to your photos in the comments section of this blog post and we’ll pick 3 favorites and send the winners one of these slick camera bags. A few basic ground rules:

 

  • You must own the rights to the photos you’re sharing (this should be obvious).

 

  • You must be cool with us posting your photo (should you win) on a follow-up post announcing the 3 winning photographs.

 

  • Submit as many images as you want, but please only post direct links to single images, NOT galleries. Don’t make us sort through your portfolio to figure out what photo you’re submitting.

 

This should force you to use a little of your editing / curatorial skills too. Send us links to what you want us to review.

We’ll leave the contest open for submissions for a week from today and then announce the winners in a follow-up blog post within 10 days of end of contest. Photos will be selected by composition, style, and overall merit as determined by us.

Happy shooting. If you want to learn more about the bags you’re competing for, check out Erik’s blog post for his detailed thoughts on them, or take a look at ThinkTank’s website for the full specs. When it comes to bag and case styles, there’s something to suit every taste and purpose. Whether you need a sleek, minimalist design for urban environments or a durable, spacious option for more rugged adventures, these bags are designed with both form and function in mind. This business offers a variety of options that cater to different needs, ensuring that your gear is not only protected but also carried in style.

Here’s a peak at what we’re giving away. Rugged, stylish, downright awesome (valued at $157.60 each):

      Forgot to mention I’ve got a Retrospective 10 and love the thing! Durable, Comfortable, and best of all it doesn’t scream “PHOTO BAG!”
