CBC NEWS:

Photo submissions

Send us your photos

Last Updated May 1, 2007

CBC News Online wants you to be part of the news team. When you have pictures of newsworthy people, places or events we invite you to share them.

Please use the link at the bottom of this page to send us your picture. Please note that we must have contact information from you in case there are questions about your picture.

Our normal procedure when we use submitted photos is to give the photographer a credit in this format: Photo: Mary Q. Public. If you do not wish a photo credit please indicate that in your email.

Legal information:

Your photo will be examined by our news team, who will decide on its suitability for publication. We cannot guarantee that your photo will be used. Due to the number of submissions received we cannot guarantee that we will tell you if your photo will be published.

Before you submit: important legal information

Everyone who submits a photograph for our image gallery must read and agree to the following release.
If you are under 18 years of age, a parent or legal guardian must agree to the terms of this agreement on your behalf.

Suggested guidelines

We want the photographs that you decide to submit to CBC.ca to be the best possible.

Please consider these guidelines.

1. Send us the pictures as jpgs at the maximum size you can. (Although in some cases e-mail systems won't accept a file larger than 5 megabytes.)

We prefer images that are 1280 pixels horizontal or vertical because our photo galleries have a full screen option. We can crop or reduce larger pictures. We can also use good pictures that are shot at a smaller size.

2. The picture should not have the time and date embedded by the camera visible on the image.

3. The photograph should tell the CBC.ca viewer a story, be well exposed and have interesting composition

Photo release

  1. I own this Photograph, and I own all the rights, including copyright, necessary to submit this Photograph to CBC.
  2. I am the sole owner of copyright on this Photograph, and I understand that I am granting CBC the nonexclusive right to use it in any way that CBC sees fit.
  3. I consent to indemnify CBC against any claim, demand, action, suit, or other proceedings against CBC arising out of the use of the photograph and related to any false or inaccurate statement.
  4. I grant this authorization free of charge.
  5. Participants who have modeled or posed in the photo have assigned all relevant rights to me.

We recommend you use your browser's Print button and print this page for your records.

Send us your photos as an attachment to your email. In the body of your email, please include your full name and a telephone number where we can contact you. If we can't call you, we can't use your photos. And we might want more information from you about them.

By clicking on the link and submitting your photos, you are letting us know that you have read and agree to the conditions above.
