Hi there


This is BitterBeanJuicer speaking :la:!
As you may have noticed, submission processes are taking way too long to be accepted, this is because we are in need of more active Administrators who check the log regularly. The reason this happened is I was away from deviantART because of health issues and I just returned. I'll do my best to check the log every second! :B

And since I already decided to write a blog entry, I wanna talk about another issue too!

Submissions


Firstly Urban and Rural focuses on the surroundings of an area, rather than individual elements within.

I noticed that a lot of you don't really read the submission guidelines! :stare:

SO here is a little help for submissions, what kinipelahh wrote a little while ago!

City Life

Just because a photo was taken in a city, doesn't automatically make it a city life piece. Therefore, shots of traffic lights or zebra crossings won't be accepted. City life is all about the way we live, ie what goes on in a city. This can relate closely to street photography in some aspects, but not all. City life can show a city in operation - traffic, trains and other aspects.



Cityscapes and Skylines

Obviously, these are the urban equivalent of landscapes. If it doesn't involve buildings... it should probably go into 'Country Life' instead



Country Life

Similar to City Life, but obviously in the countryside. So, it shows how people life in rural areas. It can also be used for landscapes or for showing vast areas of countryside.



Gardens, Parks and Cemeteries

This is not for close up shots of headstones, or flowers, or monuments, or benches, or grass  This is for showing the whole, surrounding area of either a garden, park or cemetery.



Industrial

This one is pretty simple. Industrial stuff  ie, industrial areas, cranes, railways etc.



Misc

If you don't think the piece fits anywhere else but could still be considered U&R, then this is the place it should go.



Urban Exploration

People seem to misunderstand this gallery the most and usually has the most miscats. This gallery is for places that are abandoned, wasted, out of use, ruined, out of reach normally etc etc. Places like abandoned warehouses, rail ways and the like.


This is all for now!
If you have any issues with the group, please feel free to contact me (via note) or FritsPlays, our Community Volunteer for Urban and Rural Photography :B
