My friend Drew is giving people the opportunity to win an Edge Tech 7″ digital photo frame on his blog, The BenSpark. I thought I would do a quick comment about it, but then I thought…”you know, I would really like this!” So I’m going for the gusto with this blog entry.

I’ve purchased a photo frame previously. A couple years ago for my mother’s birthday, I did my best to find photos, both old and new, of myself and my siblings. Since my mother gave me a scrapbook at my bridal shower and my stepmother has also given me an album with old photos, I actually had a small stash already.

It was at this time I also learned that our scanner at home has a lot of dust somewhere I can’t seem to get to. So some of the photos that were scanned have “texture”, or what some designers call “grunge”, or what could simply described as “dust specks”.  (Interested in high quality film scans?  I haven’t used this service yet, but Ken Rockwell gives a good review of the high quality scans provided by North Coast Photographic Services.)

I even figured out how to get multiple images on a screen so it would be even more like a photo album. Which make the photos smaller (helping to minimize the impact of the dust specks), but this particular digital frame was a 10″, so it still worked out nicely.  So did converting the photo to black and white.

So if you’ve been reading this blog because you enjoy photography, here’s a great gift idea that you can integrate with your love of photography. Or it’s a great way to get your photos out of your computer and into your home or office.

Take a look at some of the great features and functions of the 7″ digital photo frame, and if you’d like a chance to win this or two other prizes for someone special (or maybe just for you), check out TheBenSpark-where you can see “Everyday Pictures..Every Day”.
