Sure I would, Corey. But then I first would have to buy digiscoping equipment in order to have a chance to win…”digiscoping equipment”.:)
I don’t even know anyone in person who digiscopes. So I think it might be quite a tight contest. Might have been better to open up this contest to all kinds of bird photography and maybe get some more people into just that: “Digiscoping”.
Cheers, Klaus
Hi Klaus,
Sure its a tight contest and is aimed at digiscopers, there is no point in having a digiscoping competition aimed and general bird photographers, there is loads of those kinds of competitions, Swarovski specialise in Spotting Scopes so it makes sense that it is a digiscoping competition – they do not make cameras. So no argument really. –
I would like to participate in the swarovski digiscoping contest. How do I sign up?
