Send us your outdoors photos
Have a great outdoors photo you'd like to share with us? Upload it below, and we'll take a look at it.We're looking for three categories of shots: Trophy photos of fish or game; the best from trail cameras and anything else which captures the outdoors or nature in general. For the last category, we're looking for the type of entries which we usually find in the annual Great Outdoors Photo Contest.
Your photos must be smaller than 5 megs and in .jpg format. Usually, if you "save for Web," you'll be just fine.
Keep the photos clean. We review all material, and objectionable material will be deleted.
If it's good enough, we might use it on Kansas.com, or even in The Wichita Eagle and give you a photo byline. If you have questions, e-mail online@wichitaeagle.com
