How to Contribute to Our FLICKR Group
What is FLICKR?FLICKR.com is a web site hosting the largest community of photographers on the planet. It is a place to share your photos and meet other photo-lovers. The Flathead Beacon has a group on FLICKR where we invite photographers of all experience levels to share their photos of the Flathead Valley. These photos appear in a "FLICKR feed" in our Photos & Videos section, and may be chosen to be featured by our photo editor, with your permission. Have beautiful photos from your recent trip to Glacier? How about killer snaps of high school sports events? What about a newsworthy shot from your Flathead Valley community? Please add them to our FLICKR pool and share them with the rest of the Valley. We only ask that the photos be suitable for all viewers.
