Bill (12.24.08, 11:05 PM): Hey...great idea.... I printed a bunch for all my friends for Christmas, so you'll be hearing from them too. What a great gift to give your blog participants! You are my hero! What a guy!!!! ;)

Kathy (12.24.08, 10:59 PM): I'm with Bob....have mine printed out now too and you'll be hearing from me in the spring! LOL Great idea but I'm not there yet. I'm still begging for people to LET me take their picture. Even my dog starts shivering when she sees my camera pointed at her.

Scott Roeben (12.24.08, 3:22 PM): You're so right about this! People absolutely love photos, especially of their pets and kids. I've gotten out of giving my sister presents for YEARS because I shoot her kids so often throughout the course of the year. Thanks for your gift to ME this year, Michael! The photos of my girlfriend and I were great, and they got me thinking about the 24mm 1.8/f lens, and I got it, and love it. And, of course, the generosity you show with each blog you make, well, that's a gift beyond value! Have a great holiday!

Phat Baby Photographer (12.24.08, 12:56 PM): Love the gift card idea. I did some photography for my father with his grandkids minus the nifty gift card. The combination of getting everyone together and creating a keepsake for both my father and my kids was a win, win for everyone. Merry Christmas.

michael andrew (12.24.08, 10:59 AM): :) Yes...I am spoiled!

Bob in ATL (12.24.08, 9:29 AM): I just printed this out and will call you early January to set up a day/time. HO HO HO... HAHAH... Happy holidays Michael and may next year be better than this one. Although going to be tough to top this year with getting yourself the iPhone and the 5D II, but...
