Call for Old Photos!

Readers are invited to submit photographs for publication in the summer 2010 issue of Landscapes magazine. This photo essay will feature historic images of agriculture and rural life in the region that Landscapes magazine serves.

Rules and Guidelines

meetings, and rural gatherings
Date: Prior to 1950
Location: Photos shot in Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico or Texas will be accepted
No. of entries:  Limit of three photos per reader

How to Submit Photos

High-resolution digital photographs and photographic prints will be accepted. However, prints (hard copy photographs), CDs and DVDs will NOT be returned. Do not submit original photos — have them scanned instead. Submit your photos via one of the three methods below.

Digital File Size

Digital photo files must be high enough in resolution to make an 8 x 10-inch print at 300 dpi. Generally, the higher the resolution, the better a photo will reproduce in Landscapes.

How to Scan Photos

An original photograph must be scanned at a high resolution and saved as a digital photo file in order to submit it to Landscapes.  If you do not have your own scanner, take the photo to a custom photo lab or a self-serve photo lab, such as the labs that are located in many large supermarkets and chain drug stores
