While we offer no payment for publication, many photographers are pleased to submit their photos, as Schmap Guides give their work recognition and wide exposure, and are free of charge to readers. Photos are published at a maximum width of 150 pixels, are clearly attributed, and link to high-resolution originals at Flickr.
Our submission deadline is Monday, November 5. If you happen to be reading this message after this date, please still click on the link above (our Schmap Guides are updated frequently - photos submitted after this deadline will be considered for later releases).

So exciting to hear this news although it passed the submission deadline. LOL. It was the photo of the golden harbour bridge!
By Kathy's name I participated this year's My Auckland Photo Competition.
"We're looking for photos that capture the mood and essence of Auckland, images that say something about the photographer's personal experience of the city. We're not expecting professional quality - the spirit and imagination with which the shot is taken is far more important. At the end of the day, Aucklanders will pick their favourite." - Matthew Williams, photographer and My Auckland judge
"A picture tells a thousand words"...but what kind of words? Due to the complexity of our human brain a picture may tell completely two different stories for two different persons. So having one photo for submission only, I really struggled with what to present, especially when no short description is required.
