Pix.ie and St Patrick’s Festival 2009
March 3rd, 2009
The Irish photo sharing website PIX.ie (think Irish version of Flickr) launched that they have joined with the St Patrick’s Festival in Dublin and are running a great competition to all photographers.
Some of the Canon have offered to sponsor some of the prizes given to the three winners who’s photographs “capture the spirit of the festival” from those added to the official St Patrick’s Festival Group, where the photos can be shared and viewed with people across the world.
- 1st Prize – Canon EOS 1000D digital SLR camera, Selphy ES3 photo printer, 150 Euro photography training course, adding memory card and photo printing paper. Total value €1,050
- 2nd Prize – Powershot E1 digital camera and Selphy ES3 photo printer. Total Value €480
- 3rd Prize – Selphy ES3 photo printer. Total Value €240
I will be about the weekend before and *fingers crossed* in Dublin to experience St Patrick’s Day for the first time in the South of Ireland. If you are there too simply upload your photos to the group.
Also – Guinness Storehouse are inviting 250 Pix.ie users, bloggers and photobloggers to the party at their place after the parade in celebrating 250 years!
Full information on this competition is on the Pix.ie blog and follow @stpatricksfest and @pixie for updates.
Competition closes on 26th March.
