Nice Welcome Gift from Practical Photography

For last year’s Christmas Holiday, I went totally shopping crazy at the local Narvesen kiosk buying just about every photography related magazine I could find. My “mission” was to figure out which magazine I would choose to start subscribing to. The choice turned out not to be a difficult one.

Nice welcome gift from Practical Photography

I went for Practical Photography. This magazine stood out among the others as indeed being more practically related. It also assumed some basic photographic knowledge among readers, whereas some of the other magazines seemed to assume that the reader was more or less retarded (at least that’s my opinion). This magazine really encouraged me to take more photos, and to try out new techniques, settings, and equipment.

I submitted my subscription details during December when there was still a special Christmas subscription offer. New subscribers would be sent a welcome gift.

It’s a while since Christmas, and it’s been a while since I received my welcome gift, but I was so positively surprised that I wanted to mention it and show off a picture of it here on my blog.

In my gift I found:

  • The latest edition of the magazine (of course).
  • Digital SLR Skills – The Complete Camera Course.
  • Beginner’s Guide to Photoshop Elements (25 video lessons).
  • Camlink Camera cleaning kit.
  • 2 GB CF Memory Card.

It was like Christmas all over again!

So if you’re looking for a photography magazine to boost your photographic interest and skills, I recommend Practical Photography from Photo Answers! Check out their latest subscription offers here.
