Thanks! I entered a picture already, and now I'm waiting until tomorrow so I can enter another. Then I'm going to keep on entering every day until all my better pictures have been submitted. That first place prize (and 2nd and 3rd) sound sooooo dreamy, lol. I'm such a camera freak, lol

I entered Bijou's baby picture - thanks for the heads-up on this contest. I never win anything so I'm not sitting here getting excited but I sure hope you or one of our Canadian members gets to win something. That would be so great!

Here's the photo I submitted.

I am at work so I couldn't access your albums to see your pics. I submitted one of Mika in Jennifer's name (our daughter - her cat). Hope I don't forget to tell her I submitted her name.


I can't see me submitting a photo every day though.

Thanks, it's a favourite of mine as well. His ears looked so big for the rest of him. I remember sending it to my friend and her first comment was, "do you think his ears are big enough". He looks like a little blue-eyed bat!
