They have a Facebook ‘Camera Club’ page where you can post photographs. Every day, Monday to Friday, a selection of these get printed on the Camera Club page.

These editors (sorry advert sellers) do love a freebie.

Another week, another published photograph. I didn’t manage to get in the local (The Leader) newspaper, but I got one published in the Chester Standard newspaper. The paper for the next area. Unlike The Leader who publish a full-page selection of photos five mornings a week the Chester Standard publishes a two-page selection weekly. (It being a once a week paper on Thursdays.)

No, just in the amount o positive feedback I get with my photography, whereas with videography it is good “but this is how I would improve it” type comments. :smiley:
