26/6/2008 - The Great Mountainsmith Bag Give Away From Flying With Fish!
As a photographer I have relied on Mountainsmith bags to carry my gear for years. I currently use five Mountainsmith products on a regular basis (well really six, since I have two Mountainsmith Tour packs). I have been writing about my Mountainsmith bags since I started Flying With Fish, and even dedicated a whole week to the versatility of the Mountainsmith Tour.
My consistent references to Mountainsmith products have caught the attention of Mountainsmith and they have very graciously offered me three bags to give away to the readers of Flying With Fish!
What do you have to do to win one of these Mountainsmith bags? Simple, you need to tell the 'worst case scenario' you have experienced on the road and how you overcame it! In 400 words or less, I need the details of what and where your worst case scenario happened and I need the details of how you overcame the situation to keep on going (FYI: telling me you ended up in jail is not a solution to overcoming a travel problem).
Be honest! Any stories that seem a little far-fetched will be verified; also I have read the "worse case scenario" series of books, so no lifting material from there; I also read Flyer Talk and can search the archives so no ripping off material!
So what's at stake?
First Prize : The Mountainsmith Parallax photo backpack.
My Mountainsmith Parallax carried everything I needed to travel around the world 1.5x times approximately 4 days while shooting a project for an airline. The backpack held everything I needed to pack, it is legal for carry on with virtually every airline.....and.....it is compact and comfortable enough to be worn while shooting!
Second Prize: The Mountainsmith Day Recycled lumbar pack
I love that Mountainsmith produces bags from recycled material. This is very forward thinking and it helps reduce our individual footprint on the planet. My Mountainsmith Day is used as a small satchel for both my 15" PowerBook and 13" MacBook. I also use the Day as my 'hit the ground running' bag, stocked with a small kit of lenses and basic lighting accessories.
Third Prize: The Mountainsmith Cyber II Recycled Pouch
These compact pouches are fantastic for carrying a point & shoot, flash, or small lens. I have a used a Cyber II (large) to hold lenses such as the 16-35f2.8 and 85f1.8 on my belt when traveling one body and only two small lenses.
...So think back on your travels and write down the details of your 'worst case scenario' and how you overcame the problems to keep on trudging along. Once you have correctly recalled the details of your ordeal and triumph send me an e-mail of 400 words or less! The e-mail address your entry should go to is : traveltips@flyingwithfish.com
THE DEADLINE FOR ENTRIES IS MONDAY THE 7TH OF JULY! Winners will be announced on the 9th of July.
You may enter once. All entries must have your full first and last name. Anyone enters twice will have both entries disqualified.
…………..and let’s all give Mountainsmith a big round of applause for supporting the readers of Flying With Fish!
Happy Flying!

2/06/2008 - Go Flying On Fish! Tell Me Why You Want To Travel & Win A $100 Southwest Airlines Gift Card!
Today is the first day of the second-half of the year (well yesterday was, but I don't usually post on Sundays), and Flying With Fish would like to help one lucky reader get out at see the United States!
With readers of Flying With Fish ranging from first-time flyers to daily road-warriors, I wanted to offer something universal. I needed something to encourage everyone to participate. Something to encourage YOU to fly!
I know that novice travelers often want to explore the world and those who travel for the daily grind often want to take a weekend and go see something they missed on a trip (I often feel that although I've been all over the world I've never had a chance to "see the world"). So what could I offer..............
.........how about a US$100 gift card to spread your wings on Southwest Airlines?
Why Southwest Airlines? A few reasons in no particular order: I love their slogan "You Are Now Free To Move About The Country”; The airline has one of the best corporate attitudes of any airline I know or fly; the airline is a melting pot, with only economy class, no "elite lines," no frequent flyer "tiers," all flyers are equal.............lastly, you can go pretty far on $100 on Southwest Airlines!
How far can $100 take you? Well that changes day-to-day and requires some user legwork to find fares, but I've seen Philadelphia (PHL) to Ft Lauderdale (FLL) for $128 round-trip in the past few days! I've also flow Southwest's "Web Specials" pretty close to cross the continent for $120 round-trip!
What do you have to do for your journey on Southwest Airlines?
It's quite simple, you need to write me an e-mail, of less than 200 words, telling me where you want to go, what you want to see and why you want to see it. Once you have your 200 words or less, drop the e-mail to traveltips@flyingwithfish.com
To be fair, the top five e-mails will be selected by the end of the week and then re-read 'blind' so I have no idea who wrote them.
Entries must be submitted by 11:59pm EST (GMT -5) on Sunday the 8th of June. The winner will be announced on Monday the 9th of June.
Happy Flying!
