UK nature and Environment seasonal banner competition - submissions thread (self.nature)

submitted 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) by GreyShuck to c/nature

1 comments fedilink

We are into December and the solstice is not so far away, so it is time for our seasonal banner competition.

So please comment below with a link to any photos that you have taken or artwork that you have made that you would like to be considered for the banner. Let’s say a maximum of three items per person; photos that you have taken or art you have created and have the rights to; something suitable for the subject of the community: maybe a natural landscape, or wildlife, or volunteers working for the environment (as long as you have the permission of anyone identifiable in the photo) or something along those lines. And preferably, but not necessarily, “Winter” themed.

I’m not absolutely clear about the optimum dimensions etc for a banner, but the size and shape of the section that appears varies with the browser dimensions and appears differently again in the sidebar, so keep that in mind. Otherwise the larger the better.

I’ll leave this post stickied until midnight on Sat Dec 14th for submissions then put up a voting thread for the following week with all the submissions that we have by then and then decide the winner on the 20th. It’ll basically be on upvotes, but I reserve the right to disqualify any ‘Naturey McNatureface’ ones or others that I really don’t think are suitable. The winner will become the banner until the spring equinox and the next competition, and obviously we’ll make it clear in the sidebar who should be credited for that banner.

This is an old classical guitar, it might be up to seventy years old. It buzzes with every note but it's the loudest on the G string. Please help.
