Prepare to be captivated by the breathtaking beauty of the south of England! Our dedicated Weather Watchers have ventured out, cameras in hand, to capture the essence of this enchanting region. From the rolling hills of Oxfordshire to the serene landscapes of Berkshire, Dorset, and Hampshire, and even the picturesque Isle of Wight, we present a visual journey that will leave you in awe.
But here's where it gets controversial... We want you to join in on this artistic adventure! Yes, you heard that right. We invite you to become a part of this captivating collection by submitting your own images. Whether you're a seasoned photographer or a beginner with a keen eye, your unique perspective matters. Share your snapshots of the south, and let's create a community-driven gallery that celebrates the beauty of nature and our surroundings.
And this is the part most people miss... It's not just about taking pretty pictures. It's about capturing the essence of a moment, a feeling, or a story. So, when you submit your images, think about the narrative you want to convey. Is it the peacefulness of a sunrise over the countryside? The vibrant colors of a summer afternoon? Or perhaps the resilience of nature in the face of changing seasons?
To submit your photographs, it's as easy as visiting BBC Weather Watchers (https://www.bbc.co.uk/weatherwatchers) or sending an email to southweather@bbc.co.uk. For inspiration, check out some top tips from three of England's Big Picture photographers (https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p04z6w08).
When emailing your pictures, remember to include the full name of the photographer (who owns the copyright), confirmation of permission for the BBC to use the images, the location, date, and time of the shoot, your contact number, and any additional details that might enhance our understanding of the image.
Please note that while we appreciate all submissions, we are more inclined to feature images taken within the past week. You can also explore our archive on Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/bbchampshire) using the hashtags #bbcsouthnews and #BigPicture.
By contributing, you agree to our terms and conditions (https://www.bbc.co.uk/terms) and privacy policy (https://www.bbc.co.uk/usingthebbc/privacy/). We grant the BBC a royalty-free, non-exclusive license to use your material, but rest assured, you retain the copyright, and your name will be published alongside your accepted images.
Remember, safety first! Please avoid any situations that might endanger yourself or others while capturing these moments.
So, are you ready to showcase your artistic vision and become a part of this beautiful project? We can't wait to see your unique take on the south of England!
