~~~

What we Seek

We are looking for quality outdoor pictures.

Subjects of animals, plants and wild landscapes around your backyard, home, local area.

The places you consider your backyard or favorite spots to seek the outdoors. We ask that any photos of pets be outside. And your submissions be varied instead of all the same series. like if you have two pictures of your dog that look identical pick the best of the two :).


If the picture focuses on wildlife, we ask that it doesn't feature too many human or man made elements, ie cages.

If your pictures, feature people, we ask for more candid portraits or street styles of photography.

~~~
submission limits

featured folder One entry every week
all other folders 3 photos per day
Submit to the correct folder.

Try not to have a really obstructive watermark,that detracts too much from the image although we do accept pictures with them

Newsfeeds can be filled quite quickly so please be considerate of how many images or how similar they are when submitting, Do share what you feel is best of your work :).
~~

if you have a suggestion or would like us to add something we are missing, please feel free to send a note or comment.

Thank you for visiting :wave:
We hope you enjoy the group and join the family :).
