Aloha, quick question: I have a loverly photo I'd like to submit. I noticed that, for an floral photos, the flowers must be wildflowers and not a bouquet, which is understandable. The flower in my pic USED to be in a bouquet, but the pic itself is just the flower on its own. It's not one of the crazy colour-dyed flowers or anything, just a simple tulip. Would you accept that? Here's a link for your consideration: [link]

Cheers!

yes, i would accept that. i just sent a request to have it submitted into the group's gallery. when i say i don't accept bouquets, i meant the photo should not be one in a planter, vase, ect. it has to look like it belongs in the wild, since this group is dedicated to the great outdoors.

Hello! I have submitted some photos to your wildlife folder, but they get ignored until they expire. This is weird seeing as all my other photos are accepted, and these photos are in no worse quality. Have I missed a rule or something?

Sorry, I just managed to find your guidelines, and they say no zoo animals, so that's why. Having the guidelines on the front page or somewhere easy to find would be helpful. My bad!

no worries, sorry the guidelines were so difficult to find. i normally try to keep them posted right here on the group's profile but with new journal updates i struggle to do that because i can't have more than one blog, that is why i've been asking for donations to make this a super-group, so we can do so much more. hopefully i did not offend you by not accepting your submission and hope you continue to keep sending us your submissions. if you ever have any other questions about the group or the guidelines just send me a note and i'll be glad to help. :)

That's okay, I wasn't offended, merely confused! I can see how managing a group can be difficult at times. My point-stash is low, but I hope you manage to become a super-group! This group has such a nice atmosphere :aww:
