I recently bought myself a new camera, quite well timed really as I was able to use it to take some rather good, if I do say so myself, photographs at the Deep Purple concert I went on last Sunday evening. The camera was a smart buy. I also bought a Polaroid Pogo photo printer as well, I’m not so sure that was such a wise buy but I’m a sucker for gadgets and more so when they are on sale. Oh look, I’ve saved £30! Sounds good but when I admit to myself that I’ve spent £40 on something I don’t need just because I’m saving £30 I have to accept it’s not really a bargain!
I decided that I would resurrect my old Flickr account in order to have a better place to put my photos and after reading all the blurb thought I would upgrade to a Pro account, not so much because I think I’ll need unlimited space for photos and HD videos but mainly because I prefer having an ad free service. Here are the Deep Purple photographs I took in a nice Flickr slide-show.
Do you want the Gift of Flickr Pro?
It got me thinking, how many people would like a Flickr Pro account but didn’t have $24.95 readily available to upgrade from the free version? I decided there are probably at least four people who have the basic account who would like to upgrade but have more pressing needs for their cash. So for those readers, Twitterers and Facebookers who would like to win a Flickr Pro account…

I’m sorry I couldn’t give more accounts away, I just don’t have the money.
The response was fantastic so sometime in 2010 I will look at running a similar raffle although I may have to sell some stuff on eBay to pay for it.
