Hi peeps!

When I started this group a while ago, I wanted to feature some of the outstanding members. In the following weeks/months I'll be conducting a few interviews with photographers of different styles and feature them on the group. Keep a look out! In the mean time, if you know anyone that you think is worth interviewing let us know who they are.

Second on the agenda, I've setup a donation pool to make this group a super group! I've set it up on my profile page at mikeyfocus
If you think this group is worth it, please donate a few points!

Michael.

Hi all,

Micheal started the ball rolling a couple of months ago, wanting a complete revamp for Ausphotography. It has been slowly unfolding. The great news is that we've now increased our team to spread the workload around and have welcomed on board some wonderful new contributors who have already been working hard behind the scenes.
Welcome to
James :iconbrewer23:    Mike :iconmikeraats:     Dan :icondan2452:    Kane :iconshear-atmos-fear:    James :iconwidowm4k3r:

Our goal is to keep your submissions moving through the system without the delays and expiries that have been occuring.

Also just a reminder that the featured gallery will be scrutinized more closely and has an expectation of high quality... it will also require more votes for acceptance.

The other galleries also expect a high standard of photography; at the moment our acceptance rate is about 50% of those that are submitted. If you do have an image declined and would like feedback, then it is possible to request it by replying to the actual notification / correspondence message that you receive saying that the photo was declined. So in that correspondence message where the "comment" link is... click on that and request your feedback that way... this will keep the feedback private to you and also allows our team to easily identify the submission, who voted and what our comments and thoughts had been at the time.

We also welcome submission of favourites from your favourite Australian photographers. Just remember that favourites is for when you want to have somebody else's work featured, whereas the gallery submissions are for your own work.

So that's all the news and updates for the moment. We're looking forward to seeing more of your images and getting more Australian photography out into members' inboxes!

Cheers
Trace
We need to kickstart the engine for this group. People get busy, people's commitments changes, things get left behind. This is true for me and other admins of this group and we apologise. However we want to start a revolution. It's time for a new beginning.

Basically, to start things off to a good start, we need a team. A great dynamic team.

Someone who:
- Has great love for photography
- Passionate about building a photography community
- Passionate about helping others
- Is technically excellent regarding photography techniques
- Has Tough skin.

If you think you have what it takes, please apply for co-founder and/or contributor positions, please reply to this blog post. I will only take serious applicants, so with your application, make sure you tell us what how you can contribute to this group and how will you achieve it.

I will begin restructuring current admins/contributors within 7-14 days.


Michael.

In light of the festive season fast approaching I thought it would be a nice to feature some of the fantastic photos submitted to the group lately. On a side note if a submission goes unanswered for a period of time or expires just try resubmitting and we'll do our best.
