A website for your photos

Hello all --

If you've got photos you'd like to share with the public on the internet, the Discover Life website (http://www.discoverlife.org/) offers you that facility. Discover Life is operated under the auspices of the Polistes Foundation, whose mission "is to assemble and share knowledge about nature in order to improve education, health, agriculture, economic development, and conservation throughout the world." The Discover Life website invites nature photographers to submit images. If you have a lot of images you'd like to post, they'll set you up with a personal image database, to which you can upload your images directly. Photographers retain rights to their images. One thing is that, under the photos you submit, Discover Life provides the name and email address of the photographer; I assume the idea is to enable visitors to the site to contact the photographer to get permission to publish the image. If you don't want to have your name and email address posted on the web for all to see, you may wish to set up a separate email account (eg, you could set up a Google gmail account, such as YourName.discoverlife@gmail.com) and use that account exclusively for uploading your images. The person at Discover Life with whom I've been exchanging emails is helpful, friendly, and professional. If you have images you'd like to share, you may wish to check them out.
