Congratulations, Rachel, Will and Nutmeg!  Your Snapfish voucher should land in your inbox during the next couple of days.

The other good news?  We’ve raised enough money to pay for two weeks’ worth of formula for an orphan in Haiti through this charity.  We can argue all we like about breastfeeding and how evil it is to send formula to a disaster zone, but the truth is that there are orphans who will starve without it.  It’s made up in this orphanage for the children there, by people properly trained to do so, which goes a long way towards ensuring that it’s safely and hygenically made.

Thanks for all the entries.

Edit, update, you know: I’m giving 50p for every entry in this contest to charities working in Haiti.  Keep reading…

What does the world outside your window look like?  Are you in the country, a town, a big city?  Are you sitting still or moving along?  What’s happening out there?  Is there snow on the ground, or is the sun shining, or is it pouring with rain?

Here’s a challenge for you.  Take a photo of the window nearest to you.  It doesn’t have to be a good one, it doesn’t have to be taken on a digital SLR and edited afterwards, it doesn’t have to be anything.  Just take a photo, now, as you’re reading this, and send it to me: you can email it to katherine at mademoisellejones dot net, or you can post a link to it in the comments section.

In a week’s time, I’ll pick an entry out of the hat, and that entry will win a £20 Snapfish gift certificate, which can be used towards prints, or photo books, or photo gifts…  You decide.

Here are a few ideas to get you started:

Just to add: this isn’t sponsored by Snapfish or anything else, I just wanted to run a photo competition and had to think of a good prize.  Any other ideas?  Let me know and I’ll think about them for the next one.
