BCSplash - BLIP!

Wow what a busy time we've been having here on Blipfoto!
The launch of the #PRClimate Campaign, our 17th Anniversary Celebrations and last, but not least, our profile of blip legend Raheny Eye.

So now it's time to enjoy our latest BCSplash.

We chose this photograph by JDO as we thought it fitted very nicely with our celebrations this week. JDO wrote a lovely piece on the day of our anniversary which we are sure resonates with so many blippers:

"I've only been here seven and a half years, but that in itself is fairly remarkable, because when I began my journal in May 2014 I only intended to use it to motivate myself through a 365. Having completed that project though, I never quite got round to giving up the daily photo habit, and this is my 2,703rd entry. 

"I owe Blipfoto a lot: I've gained both LRPS (Licentiate of the Royal Photographic Society) and CPAGB (The Credit award of the Photographic Alliance of Great Britain) during the time I've been blipping, and I've been successful in competitions and in getting my work into exhibitions - none of which I'd even have thought of attempting a decade ago. 

"More importantly, I've become fascinated by wildlife and the challenge of photographing it, and when I'm asked what I do I now have the confidence to describe myself as a nature photographer and blogger. 

"Thank you Blipfoto - and many happy returns!"

Well done, JDO, and thank you for sharing your photos and words.

Our thanks to everyone for their kind messages this week and have a great weekend wherever you may be!

Would you like to see your photograph on our social media headers?

We're always on the lookout for eye-catching images to be included on our Facebook and Twitter headers as well as here on the community blog. 

Pick out a photo that would make an appealing first impression to visitors and add the tag #BCsplash.  

The images ideally should work in a banner format but we can crop them or add a border if necessary. If you're not sure but you love your image, tag it anyway.

We'd love to see you taking part, especially our newer blippers, as it is a great way to introduce yourself to everyone. Plus we really enjoy looking through your images every week.

Thank you for helping us showcase Blipfoto alongside your photos.
