Ordnance Survey, photos of Kintyre

Postby STG » Mon Feb 28, 2011 2:44 pm

The Ordnance Survey is preparing new editions of maps of Kintyre, and plan to illustrate them with new photographs of the area. Fotolibra, a supplier of stock images, is putting out a call for people to submit photographs for Ordnance Survey to use on their map covers. The requirement is that the photograph must show people involved in outdoor activities in the particular area. See the link below for more details. (There is a lot on the page, so search for Kintyre.)

It would be good if a photograph from a local photographer could be used.

The Seabird Observatory has some great pictures which I'm sure they would be happy to submit.

I happen to own copies of the two Kintyre maps shown in your link and I always thought it odd that the picture on the cover of Explorer 357 is not of a place actually covered by that map :D
