This is the PAGB's views on this sort of thing;

CHEATING "A photographer was banned from all PAGB Competitions for reported plagiarism. In effect using royalty free images as background or as component parts of photographs entered for competitions and exhibitions. Although there was no reported infringement of copyright, use of such components is not permitted by the PAGB nor by most Federations. The photographer will be stripped of any PAGB
Distinction he/she may have and the PAGB will recommend to UK Exhibitions that they do not accept his/her entries. Specific information will be sent to Federations
."

Oh I see, it is a challange not a competition....

Canon UK say: "'We are currently reviewing our marketing strategy"

....so what does that mean? Have they run out of 'marketing' money for financial year 2010-2011?...which bear in mind, ends soon.
The magazines have stopped taking bribes, so they went back to the drawing board to design a camera that can compete?

Love it Don
Well I should prolly get disqualified for two reasons...
one I'm not sure it's ok to use other images other than what is provided, and two I didn't shoot the second image.... it was a non copyright marked image off google.... I only entered for humor sake.

that car needed a little love. That is all.

(edit: Stole a car, cut paste, levels adjustments, applied guasian blur, soft mode blend, then sepia toned.)

London Drugs is the same here... you have to check every time as you never know when, for no apparent reason, a big discount will be waiting.
I got a 35 2.4 for $169.00 cdn when it was $279.00 everywhere else in the city!

Nice light. I'm not convinced her right arm should be in shot or at least up high in the shot Don. It draws my eyes away from the arm, tattoo and eyes (in that order).

Best regards
