    Default Please HELP a good cause.

    This post has been pre-approved by the BPN Ownership!
    And for that I sincerely thank them.

    Dear BPN members and friends

    Canon Australia are hosting a photographic competition (LINK) that can earn a charity AUD 60,000 (~US$50,000). I entered a number of images of Aussie wildlife (some you may already have seen here on BPN in various critiqu forums). My chosen charity is WIRES (NSW Wildlife Information Rescue and Education Services) of which my wife and I are members of. We usually have animals in care every day of the year ourselves and at times perform up to ten rescues in a week.

    So, if you feel that any of my images are worthy of YOUR VOTE, please take the time to do so and help me advance to the final stage of the comp so I can hope to win the money for my chosen charity. I wish I didn't leave uploading photos to the last minute, as it closes on the 10th (Australian Eastern Standard time, 14 hours ahead of the USA East coast at present)

    THERE ARE NO MONIES GIVEN TO THE PHOTOGRAPHER! You need to know that!

    The links below should work and take you straight to my images.

    I sincerely thank for any, any votes in advance.


    Best regards
    Ákos
