Canon Website - Seems a World Away

[SuzyView]

I recently entered a contest for landscape photography and wanted to see what was going on at the Canon website. I sometimes forget that Canon is a Japanese company because so many of the forums are based in Europe and the US. When I saw all the judges for a recent (July 30) contest, it really occurred to me that I am a world apart from the people who make the gear I love so much. Does anyone here at POTN work for Canon and why not?

Does anyone here at PO TN work for Canon and why not?

Not me. Why not? It seems that they do not need any X-Ray Technicians. :cry:

Okay... I'll bite... where's this contest? I couldn't find it.

It's from the EOS Magazine website link. I think if you link onto the magazine, they will have it, and I think it was just a landscape taken at any "US National Park Only". Also, if you go on the Canon website, you will see a contest that I didn't know about, but they run every year that these amazingly promiment Japanese photographers judge. It's a huge contest with many submissions. That was the article that set off me to start this thread. From what I can see, that world of Canon is a world away from me. Those people are pros. I'm just playing around in the sand.
