Enter The Energizer/National Geographic Ultimate Photo Contest

The 3rd Annual Energizer Ultimate Photo Contest is happening now!  

If you guys know anything about me, you know I love photography.

To the right you can see my photo of a scarlet skullcap that I took at Longwood Gardens in Pennsylvania a couple of years ago.

You can see more of my photos from Longwood here.

But more about the contest

Send in your best photos-in categories like Animals/Wildlife, Travel, and Weather-for a chance to win a National Geographic Expeditions trip for two to Greece and be featured in an upcoming issue of National Geographic magazine.

Pro photographer Jim Richardson is the judge of the contest.

Here's more info from the contest press release:

The winner will have their photo featured in the December issue of National Geographic magazine in an ad for Energizer® Ultimate Lithium batteries, and they’ll also be awarded the trip of a lifetime – a National Geographic Expedition for two to the Greek Isles.

After the entry period closes (June 30th), Richardson will review all of the entries and select two finalists in each category. Then, from Aug. 17 through Sept. 15, Americans will be asked to go online and review each of the Category Finalists and vote for their favorite in each category. Once the Category Winners are determined, Richardson will help choose a Grand Prize Winner, to be announced on or about Nov. 4.

So dig out those pictures, go to the contest website to enter, and good luck!

Intel Viliv S5 PC Review and Giveaway

This is a compensated review by BlogHer and Intel.

I don't go crazy over every tech toy that comes on the market but when I find something I love, I love it for life!  I had heard about the Intel Viliv S5 so it was a kick to get a chance to try it out.

First some background.  The Viliv S5 is a 4.8" touchscreen media-on-the go device using an Intel® Atom™ processor.  With it you can take your music, HD movies, office documents, digital photos and more with you while you're around town, on vacation, at home or on campus.  It's got 3G or WiFi connectivity options and a humongous 6 hour long battery life.

It's available at Amazon.com for $499+.
