above are the (fantastic!) entries i received in the 'fabulous caitriona.net absolutlomo competition'.
now, unfortunately redmum didn't quite make the deadline and obviously i can't win my own competition (well, i could, seeing as i'm making up the rules, but that would just be downright unfair), so that leaves me with two valid entrants; john of mcawilliams.com & neil of returntopearse.com
i hummed and hawed A LOT over picking a winner (why did i think running a competition would be fun? judging stuff is hard) and in the end i decided to go for the easy option....
...given that i got two holgas from the absolutlomo people, i'm going to award joint first (& second & third) prize to BOTH entrants! yay!!!
so congratulations john & neil! i'll give yiz a shout about handing over the goods (john, i know you'll be at the awards on saturday - neil, any chance you'll be there?)
and i expect to see loads of holga shots up on mcawilliams.com & returntopearse.com over the coming months!
Yay yippe and all that. Caitriona. I am thrilled with this, yep will be there saturday so hopefully you can find me im the one with a silver 350d and hotshoe flash 6 foot 4 in height, slim build, I wear glasses grey hair etc, congrats also to Neil and Redmum sorry you missed the deadline but I will say fantastic shots from one and all, and like I said previously thanks for the competition C.
Thanks a million Caitriona and I’ll just echo all the sentiments above. Unfortunately I won’t be attending the awards but you can get me by email to sort it out.
Thanks again and very nice work to all the entrants.
I’d better thank the sponsors too in case they get mad.
Thanks Absolut!
There, two more links for them. Sufficient thanks I feel
you’re both more than welcome guys – sure twas a bit of fun. though not sure i’ll be rushing into holding another competition again soon – the pressure is more than i can handle 😉
So have you decided on the all important ensemble for tomorrow?
ah yes sinead, all is revealed here.
and i mean it when i say revealed – it is a VERY short dress 😉
