Featured Destinations
Do you have any destination that you would like us to feature
on this website? This could be any trip or outing you
did recently and would like to write about or share some pictures
or tips.
If yes, you can and we will try to feature your trek
on this website. Of course, we will give you all due credits
for your contributions.
Please send us:
- Your name.
- Your email address.
And any of the following:
- Scanned pictures or digital photos: Maximum of 4 photos
in JPEG format. Important: You should be the one who
took the photos as we will give credit to you as the photographer,
please don't send postcards or photos or images lifted from
books, magazines or other copyrighted materials. Please note
that the photographer is the one who composed the shot and
not necessarily the one who pressed the shutter or the one
who owns the camera! :>)
- Brief or elaborate description of the waypoint (destination).
- Brief or elaborate narrative of "How to go there"
- Useful tips and advices specific to the waypoint.
- Optional memo notes for each of the pictures.
- GPS waypoint coordinates based on WGS84 datum (if available)
- GPS track log and routes (if available)
- Your home page URL (if you have a home page). As a
contributor, we will create a profile page for you and create
a link to your home page if you have any.
Some technical notes:
On the website, photos are displayed with maximum height of
400 pixels. If you are familiar with image manipulation
programs, please resize your photos to have a height of not
more than 400 pixels and save it with JPEG factor of 7 before
sending it. This is really more to save on email download time.
Large photos take too long to download and your humble webmaster
uses only a dial-up connection :>)
Much like photos, narratives should be creations of the contributor.
Please do not send articles lifted straight from already-published
materials (print or other media), unless, of course, you are
the same author of the published material. We allow paraphrasing
as it is an accepted form of responsible and credible reportage
as long as your reference materials are included at the end
of your narrative.
Thank you
