EarthShare of Georgia Wants Your Georgia Nature Photos

EarthShare of Georgia is looking for photos of residents exploring the outdoors with family and friends in Georgia.  Selected images will be featured on EarthShareOfGeorgia.org.

Pictures can be submitted to Earthshare via Flickr.  New pictures will be posted on the new and improved EarthShare of Georgia website launching in July 2009 and in some printed materials.  All you need to do to submit your photos is to add them to the EarthShare of Georgia group on Flickr and tag them "EarthShare of Georgia-09".  Flickr is an online photo sharing web site made up of many groups.  To add your photos, simply follow these steps:

3.        Upload an image - After logging in, 
upload your images using the form provided. (Please submit photos sized 1280 x 1024 pixels minimum.)
 
4.        Send the Image to Our Group - Browse to the image you wish to submit for the contest, and use the "Send to Group" function above the image to add your photograph to the EarthShare of Georgia's photo pool. 
5.        Tag it! -- Once added to the group, tag each photo with EarthShare of Georgia-09 through the "tag" feature in the right-hand column of the individual photo's page.
