the Chronicles of Blake

Newsletter Photo Contest

Hey Everybody!

I have enjoyed sending out and posting Newsletter pictures for you all to enjoy for the past 4 years. Some of you enjoy the pictures more than the Newsletter, which is fine. But as the Newsletter comes to a close, I am curious as to which picture you think is the BEST OF THEM ALL...



Cast your vote for your favorite Newsletter picture of all time and LEAVE A COMMENT as to which one is your favorite and WHY! Here are the Nominees:

evil
1) The rivalry between me and Kade the evil cat has been mounting over the years. This is part of the reason why.

bedtime
2) AACS week comes and there are no places to sleep. Well… I found one!

shiny
3) This is when Frodo… eh, BLAKDO received his cool sword.

warped
4) A TOTALLY random picture of Troy, me, and Chris.

flower
5) A picture from a series of Artist Series pics in which a dateless guy and girl with cardboard signs find the perfect date.

shire
6) Erika and me… behind bars.

behind bars... wait. switch with last
7) Fond memories of Blakdo in the Shire.

corny
8) One of the very first pictures of Erika and me together. Kind of a corny picture.

diffuse
9) A strange day indeed when we had a “diffusing party” at Tim and Ashley’s.

ring
10) Blakdo finds a ring.

angel
11) One of my very first and better known movie roles.

elixir
12) Blake receiving the Wonderful Elixir of Love from Dr. Dulcamara. I guess it worked after all.

fly
13) Me flying above the set I painted for Peter Pan.

crime
14) Getting caught red-handed.

merry christmas
15) The Graves 205 Christmas Card.

So please leave a comment about your favorite. Thank You!!!
-Blake

But, I really like #5 because Blake and I had a wonderful time at Artist Series, and I am always very glad to be his date!

I have to agree that all of the pictures are good, although I might not say it exactly as my sister did. ( More mush Erika. You should start an official Blake fan club. You could easily be president!)2,3,5,6,7,9,11,13, and 14 are probably my most favorite. Very cool over all!

Definitely #10. It was the original inspiration for me to take up reading the LOTR analogy of your life here at BJU, which I have read every word of (as of today). Truly brilliant; a masterpiece.

# 15 will always bee my favorite. Everytime I've looked at that picture I have broke out in laughter. 14 was a very close second.

#10 makes me laugh up every time I see it. Little Blakdo finding the ring ("one ring to rule them all"). I thought it was his tie that was supposed to give him his power. It's so funny how sometimes Blakdo tries to be Frodo (when he falls on the ground and the ring flies in the air. Every time Frodo puts his hand up, the ring falls perfectly onto his finger. Cracks me up) and othertimes he tries to be Gollum (Smeagol?) when he finds the ring. Hehe!

I think I have to go with #5 just because I'm sentimental and into all the romance. It's a very cute picture of the two of you. =)

Hey Blake, this is Erika's roomate Aimee :). Very VERY funny pictures! You definitely have some intense photo-shopping skills. So I vote the #3 Frodo picture as the best. I had to look twice!

I always thought #6 was a very cute picture of you and Erika, but it better be the last time we see anything like it! Actually, I agree with Erika. All of your pictures are adorable. (That is strictly an unbiased opinion!)
By the way, Kade and Chip voted too. Chip liked #1. Kade didn't.

I have know narrowed my favorites down. The absolute best are 3,7,and 13. Can you tell that I'm a LOTR fan?!? The pictures with Erika are okay too. :)

I've changed my mind. It's number 3. Number 10 is extremely funny, but then I realized that the best one's been number 3 the entire time. Sorry about the confusion.

I thought picture 2 was really funny. The rest are cool too. :) And you and Erika make a very cute couple. :)

Oh... at first glance, I thought picture 9 was supposed to be a progression from longer hair to shorter hair. That was weird.

Though I think it's cool that you put an armband on Kade with the Nazi symbal.

I like # 12. You did a great job in redesigning the Elixir label for all the bottles. What great memories!

I'll choose #5 because of the nice young lady in the picture. But who was the bad influence that caused you to be "behind bars" in the next frame?

So Everyone wants to hear from me as to which is my favorite. Well, I actually have two for different reasons.
#13, because painting the floor for Peter Pan was probably the sweetest project I could have ever dreamed of doing for stage. and...
#5, because it is is a very sweet artist series picture that shows us how we really are, and not the traditional stiff "artist series pose." It shows my romantic side a bit.
But they all make me smile. That is why I put them in in the first place.
