While we offer no payment for publication, many photographers are pleased to submit their photos, as Schmap Guides give their work recognition and wide exposure, and are free of charge to readers. Photos are published at a maximum width of 150 pixels, are clearly attributed, and link to high-resolution originals at Flickr.

Isn’t that cool?  Especially for someone like me who regards my photography skills as “bad” at best.  Hopefully my photo will make it :).
