Great Reference, for Stock photography
sites and Photo Contests
By Cherie L. Wasson-reinheimer (Kansas) "This is a great resource for the amateur wanting to do a bit more in photography than snap shots of the kids. The online stock site list is impressive, and better than doing searches on Google. I don't know how many times I have tried to get into a photo contest and then found out it was over, this provides a great way to be proactive and most importantly give the websites so you can find out when the next contest is, and plan accordingly."

I can't say enough good things about this book. I am going to recommend it to all of my classmates at the Academy of Art University. Best book I have read in a long time."
Great words of wisdom for aspiring
photographers
By J. Kunza (Omaha,NE) "As a person whom has just started entering my photographs into contests, this book reminded me of some of the reasons I felt that were the cause of not winning or even placing in contests. This is a great book for the beginner, with many of sites for contests to try your works out. Worth the cost and worth the time to read."

Great Book! Highly Recommended
By Daniel Mohr "This book was amazingly helpful! It taught me so much about photo contests, but most of the information it gave about the competitions is also very applicable in day to day shooting. It is jam-packed with practical advice. I have read several library books about photography and this was more helpful than any of them, especially when it comes to photo contests and stock photography. It is an enjoyable read, well written and in a concise manner. "In the second half, the author put together a huge list of photography contests with details such as entry fee (if any), deadline, who can enter, what the prizes are, etc... This alone makes the book worth it if you are into competitions. The most helpful for me was the large section of tips from contest judges and other professional photographers. The list of places that award grants section at the end has proved to be very rewarding too. It is a great resource for anyone interested in photography contests! It comes highly recommended!"
A wonderful resource
By Matt McDonald (Portland, OR) "This book will inspire you to get out and take high-quality pictures, and gives you the information needed to showcase them for profit and prestige. It contains the best collection of photography contest and event details that I have ever seen. The information is very accurate and thorough, and the contests are organized by deadline dates which is extremely useful. For this alone, the book will be an invaluable resource for any professional/aspiring photographer. In addition, the first half of the book is dedicated to helping photographers of all skill levels prepare for and submit that winning shot. First, the author guides the reader through the benefits of participating in contests, followed by tips to remember while shooting, and motivational quotes. I found the read very easy, but extremely enjoyable and motivational. Overall, a very helpful and well written guide that would make a useful addition to any aspiring photographer's collection."
