How Do I Share My Photos?

If you have digital photos of an approved Master Naturalist activity, please send them along as an email attachment with an activity description and any caption information to Sam Glass.

You don't have to worry about editing them (cropping, color adjustment, resolution) before you send them, as the Webmaster can do that for you.

They can be in any standard format like JPEG or TIFF, but you might have to compress the attachment prior to emailing it if it is large (beyond five megabytes) as the email server may not deliver it.

You can also send them in separate, smaller attachments.

Your photos are subject to approval prior to posting.

You don't have to worry about editing photos for our Web site.

But if you want to know more about digital image editing, Neal McLain has an excellent discussion on resolution, resizing, and cropping on the Cradle of Texas Master Naturalist Chapter Web site.

Since taking pictures of the natural world is an enjoyable part of being a naturalist, his knowledge can benefit us all.
