About us
Deviants
| Which photos are eligible? - The animal must be completely wild, without exception. No zoo animals, shots from rehab centers, or animals from game farms (what is a game farm?). - The photo must have been shot ethically. The animal may not be baited with food or spooked, nor may it be approached too closely. In other words, the photographer may not interfere with the animal's natural behaviour (ethical wildlife photography). - No photomanipulations. - In order to maintain diversity in our gallery, we reserve the right to reject shots of excessively common species like Canada geese, sea gulls, mallards, house sparrows, gray squirrels, ladybugs, dragonflies, and butterflies. However, if you feel the shot is worth submitting, please do. - We have no quality standards per se, but we would appreciate if you only submit work you consider your best. How many deviations may I submit? We are only accepting 2 submissions per person per day. This is to give us the ability to review them all in a timely manner and prevent our group’s submissions from clogging up people’s message centers! If you submit more than 2 we may reject them. How do I submit a deviation? A tutorial may be found here. With that said, the groups feature is new and has had a few bugs. Please be patient as these get worked out. How do I join? Click the “Join Our Group!” button at the top of our main page. OMG why do you hate zoo photographers?! We don’t, and there is nothing wrong with zoo photography. However, we consider it sufficiently separate from wildlife photography. Can I be an administrator/moderator/contributor? At the moment we have a number of administrators and are not accepting any more. However, we would love to have you join as a member! I have something cool to say! All members are encouraged to create content that we may feature. If you have written a journal, news posting, or blog entry that you feel pertains to this group, please send one of the admins a note. We may publish it - with a link to the original posting and full credit of course! You rejected my photo! Sorry, it didn’t meet our criteria (see above). -or- Due to the high volume of submissions we receive, we've had to reject a number of shots. Still have a question? Send us a note! |
