One Clean Contest

Germs are among us. It’s nothing new. But how terribly grossed out do you get when you doing the normal day to day stuff and your kids want a snack (which are almost always finger foods) and there’s no running water or soap in sight? Like after a fun filled day at the park. Your child has touched everything there at least once, along with every other dirty kid in the neighborhood and then, wants to use those same hands for diving into a bag of goldfish. Eeeeeeew.

So, what’s that got to do with My Best Shot Monday? Well, nothing usually but this week is different. This week, not only does my photo of choice encapsulate the above park scenario, but today we are kicking off our latest photo contest here at Picture This. It’s been a while since our last one so the great people at CleanWell and I thought it was high time for a little competitive fun! And they are offering prizes. Free stuff. Wheeeeee.

Besides offering a great product, the CleanWell folks have a good eye for design. Their logo is great, packaging divine, and their website is really lovely to experience. And they’ve got this photo gallery element that is great fun. One way to this girl’s heart is through some good photos! You all know that about me. So, here’s the gig; starting today you are all invited (and your friends and their friends and so on) to enter one photo that you think is a perfect CleanWell Moment. You know, like when you could really use one of their products. You can get an idea of what I mean by looking at what they’ve got in their gallery and go from there. Get creative! Give us YOUR take on a CleanWell Moment.

Logistics are as such—

1. Choose a fab photo (only one submission per person).
2. Head over to Flickr and join the CleanWell Moments photo group. Here’s the link. There is more than one CleanWell group. The one for this contest is called CleanWell Moments, FYI.
3. Once your photo has been uploaded to Flickr, add it to the CleanWell Moments Group.
4. If you don’t know how, just click on your image on your Flickr page and look at the prompts at the top of the image. One will say “Add to Group”. Click there and click on the CleanWell group in your list. Done!
5. Encourage your friends to take a peek and enter something as well. Talk about it, blog about it, whatever! The more the merrier as I always say.

The contest will end on Friday, April 29^th at midnight and the winners will be announced on Tuesday, May 1^st right here at Picture This so be sure to tune in then. Now, let me lay out the prize situation for you. The 1^st Place winner will receive a Sampler Pack, 2^nd Place gets a Family Pack and 3^rd Place will walk away with a Travel Pack.  And besides the goods, all three winners will be added to the CleanWell Moment Photo Gallery on the website (if that's cool with you)! Fame and fortune ladies, fame and fortune.

And since we think you are all worthy of free stuff, CleanWell is now offering FREE SHIPPING on orders of $25 or more through their site. If you want to hear more testimonials about CleanWell products, go read what the real parents of The Parent Blogger Network have to say.

OK gang, get shooting!

Enter CleanWell, the fab new natural wonder-spritz that will sanitize your child’s germy hands in one heavenly spray (or wipe depending on which product you prefer). And it does so with natural ingredients (cool huh?) and none of that alcohol that’s in all the rest of those types of products. With CleanWell, it’s all good.

I like the color cast of that photo--it really adds a feeling of nostalgia for me.

And...nice contest--too bad I didn't take pictures of J's dirt-eating yesterday :)

I agree with Julie, the color cast makes that picture so nostalgic! It feels like a memory we all hold in common.

Here's my BSM:

And I added a picture to the contest pool, too - fun, fun!

I love the look of that tree in the background. It's somehow out of focus and in at the same time.

My little monkey climbed up there all by herself. Six times!

I will have to dig through my photos to see what I have that would fit into the contest. I love free stuff!

Great warm color cast on the photo of your daughter. I love it!

Here's my BSM, some more pictures of the little baby I took on Saturday:

I'm a wee bit jealous of the sunshine and warmth you got to experience this weekend. My shot is the opposite!

And honestly, did you know who you were inviting into this CleanWell contest? Do you not know the germs and dirt involved in the lives of boys? I'll so be in this one and I've plugged the contest in today's post. thanks

Tracey, you are so talented. I love your pictures.

I know next to nothing about photography except the satisfaction found in capturing images...and that is enough to make me haul my digital camera all over the place even if I dont know what all the settings mean.

I like this one of Elias because of the feelings it captures:

I love how just the top half of her face is peeking above her legs, but you can totally tell she's got a big smile on her face!
