Underwater photography along the California coast is always helpful as well. Most of the photographs Outdoor California uses come from the Photography Award program but other submissions are welcome. We prefer 35 mm slides. If you provide the slides for us to keep on file, provide duplicates. Large transparencies and prints are okay.
Transparencies are preferred.
Print your name on the slide jacket in indelible ink. Since transparencies and prints usually come in some type of protective sheeting, please write your name on the sheeting. If we decide to use your photographs, we will request the originals unless you have already provided them. All originals provided for an issue of the magazine will be sent back by either Federal Express, UPS, or other express carrier to ensure timely and safe delivery. Originals are usually returned one or two weeks after the printer has released the materials.
