Send us your celebrations!
The “Good For You!” page is a new feature we have launched in the Plaindealer, where we publish reader-submitted photos illustrating community, celebrations and more.
Maybe you snapped photos of volunteers doing trail work, or your kids raising funds for a local nonprofit with a lemonade stand. Maybe someone in your family was recognized with an award or a scholarship. That’s the kind of thing we’re shooting for. We’re looking for photos of people in the community.
Want to submit a photo for publication? Here are some guidelines for submissions: • This page is dedicated to photos of people doing community-related activities here in the region.
• Photos should be clear and in focus. We are unable to publish photos that are blurry – a good rule of thumb is if it’s blurry on your screen, it will only look worse in print.
• Photos should be recent. If you took the picture more than a month ago, it’s probably too old to publish. It should also be clear what’s happening in the photo.
• Please email your photo to erin@ouraynews.com. In your email, include a description of what’s happening in the photo and please identify the people who are pictured. Dates, the name of the event and first and last names are a must. Not sure what information you need to include? Look at the captions on this page for guidance. Please check to make sure names are spelled correctly.
• Submission of photos grants the Plaindealer the right to publish submitted photos. In submitting a photo for consideration, you are claiming to be the owner of the image. Please do not submit others’ photographs or work done by professional photographers – they retain the copyrights to their images.
