Grice Connect is launching an exciting new initiative to spotlight local photography talent through their "Photo of the Day" feature, inviting Bulloch County residents to share their work with the community. The daily showcase will highlight community-submitted images across multiple platforms, including the website, Facebook page, and the popular Bulloch County Daily newsletter, which reaches thousands of readers every morning at 6 a.m.
The submission process comes with specific guidelines designed to ensure consistency and local focus. All photographs must be taken in horizontal (landscape) orientation, as vertical or portrait-oriented photos will not be accepted. Additionally, all images must be captured within Bulloch County boundaries to maintain the local connection that defines the publication's mission.
Submitters are required to provide essential information along with their photographs, including the specific location where the image was taken, the date of capture, and their name for proper photo credit. While optional, photographers are encouraged to include a brief caption that provides context for their image, helping viewers better understand and appreciate the captured moment.
By participating in the program, photographers grant Grice Connect permission to publish and utilize their submitted photos across various platforms and future features, with full credit given to the original photographer. However, the publication maintains editorial discretion, and submission does not guarantee publication in the Photo of the Day feature.
The initiative represents part of Grice Connect's broader effort to engage the community and showcase the beauty of Bulloch County through the eyes of its residents. The publication encourages locals to "show everyone how awesome 'Our House' is," emphasizing the community pride aspect of the photography program.
Interested photographers can submit their work directly through Grice Connect's online submission portal. The publication also uses this opportunity to promote their free Bulloch County Daily newsletter, which features comprehensive local content including community events calendar, obituaries, local gas prices, weather updates, and other relevant information for residents.
