With the recent launch of the blogTO iPad app we're doubly excited about all things tablet these days including David Hockney's Fresh Flowers exhibit currently showing at the ROM. If you haven't seen it, the exhibit features hundreds of the artist's sketches displayed on iPhones and iPads - the same type of mobile and tablet devices he used to create the art in the first place. For more details check out our review of the exhibit here or this page on the ROM web site.

Now, in partnership with the ROM, we're offering a free iPad 2 to one lucky winner of our photo contest. The theme of our contest is Fresh Flowers and the winner of the contest will be whoever submits the photo we feel best represents the theme. For details on how to submit your photo to the contest please keep reading.

UPDATE

We now have two winners! Congrats to Juanita Koo who submitted the winning photo of some fresh flowers she made out of cake. We felt this entry was the perfect tie-in to the Hockney exhibit which made her photo stand out from the other entries.

The second place winner is Daniel Tran who submitted this entry to our Flickr pool.

Thanks to everyone who participated and congrats to our two winners!
