Every month, the PHOTONews creative team will select some of the most interesting images from the PHOTONews Canada Gallery flickr group https://www.flickr.com/groups/photonewsgallery/ to appear in the PHOTONews FLASH Newsletter.
To participate in this very special section of the newsletter, please visit the flickr group and join our family of photo enthusiasts – it’s fun, it’s FREE, and it’s the ideal way to share your thoughts and photographs with more than 17,000 readers of PHOTONews Magazine.
The PHOTONews Canada Gallery flickr group is our online portal for a wealth of information on photo techniques, events, and spectacular images. Readers are encouraged to join the discussions, and enter our quarterly PHOTONews Challenge for a chance to have their work published in the next issue of the magazine.
