To be featured in St. Albert LIVE, photos should be of St. Albert and surrounding area. We will feature natural landscapes, cityscapes, close-up nature shots, architecture, animals and photos that capture the feeling of the Botanic Arts City.

Here are some helpful guidelines to give you a better idea of what we're looking for!

• For a standard landscape orientation photo, the file should be 5 megabytes and at least 2500 by 2000 pixels in size. Low quality or small images will not be used.
• Photos may be cropped.
• The photo(s) should not include personal watermarks.
• Submissions must be directly from the photographer.
• Include your name as you wish it to appear publicly, the date and location of where the image was taken and identification of subject matter when possible. Proper credit will be provided.
• Sharp and in focus. The objects should be clear and centered.
• No people in the frame.
• Minimal industrial elements in nature photos (e.g. no power lines, buildings or cars, unless it adds to the concept/composition somehow).
• We only accept original photos. We do not accept screenshots, in-game captures and composite art.
• Photos may be used for other purposes in City of St. Albert publications.
   

Images should be at least 5 megapixels and at least 2500 by 2000 pixels in size.

• We don’t accept unclear photos, selfies or photos that would be considered inappropriate for an all ages viewing audience.
• Photos should not have borders, graphics, text or watermarks overlaid on them.
• There is no monetary compensation for any photos that are published in the newsletter or online.
