Just a reminder that photo submissions are due today (20 September). There are still lots of species for which no one has submitted a photo, so please consider contributing to this effort. See my original email (below) for instructions.
Steve ********** Iowa birders- The Iowa Breeding Bird Atlas (BBA2) Steering Committee is soliciting high resolution jpg photos of Iowa breeding species for use in the upcoming print publication. The final image must be cropped to 3.25 in. X 2.25 in. at 300 DPI. Although the online version of the atlas will be in color, the images will be converted to grayscale for print publication so should have as much contrast as possible. We will only accept photos from Iowa photographers; preference will be given to photos taken in Iowa. In the event your photo is selected for publication, you will be sent a release form for this one-time use in the print and on-line publication. Budgetary contraints preclude the purchase of the images but photographers will be credited in the photo legend. All photos must be uploaded through the IOU web page at this link: http://bba.iowabirds.org/UploadPubPhotos.aspx. The file size limit is 2 MB for each submission, and a photographer may submit no more than 20 photos. Please follow all submission instructions carefully; the IOU is not responsible for incomplete submissions. The deadline for photo submissions is 20 September 2013. If you have general questions about the project and photo solicitation please contact me; please direct technical inquiries about the on-line submission process to Ann Johnson, who may require a couple of days to respond.
