photo submission sizes

Question: 

Hi, love the site. Do you have any guidelines for dimensions/dpi/quality for submitting photos? I started to look through the q&a, but since there's no search function I realized I could be looking for quite a while. Thanks for this site - inspiring!

Answer: 

 

Thanks a lot for the appreciative comments. The guidelines for submitting photos are:
Maximum file size: 10 MB
Allowed extensions: jpg jpeg png
Images larger than 594x594 pixels will be scaled to that size, and the highest quality JPGs will give the best results

Question: 

Hi, I'm a photographer and came across your site a few years ago, but lost track of it in the shuffle of internet surfing. Just this week, I rediscovered your site and read much about "Contemplative Photography". I believe in much of my work, this was my way of practicing photography, but just never knew the name. :) You have a wealth of information here and I'll be purchasing the book. I uploaded for the first time, three images to share here. I'd love to hear your feedback if at all possible. I'll be sure to visit soon and often and I've shared it on my Facebook Page. Glad to have found you! Peace, Ocean

Answer: 

It's great that you re-found us. Thanks for submitting the photos. We look forward to seeing more of your work.

The Book

“This is not your usual ‘how to be a better photographer’ book. It takes you into deeper water. It requires investigation and commitment to areas new to you. Among other things, you will think about perception in new ways. If you read this book with care, and without skepticism, it will radically expand your thinking, seeing, and photography.”

—Jay Maisel, photographer
and author of Light on America
