Our monthly “What’s Up” magazine is distributed to bases across Germany in four regional editions.
Each month, we feature a “Your Snapshot” page with one reader-submitted photo crediting the photographer.
Photos are selected for their subject matter and fit within the content of the magazine’s, in addition to their creativity and quality. Amateur photographers are highly encouraged to send in photos.
Submissions are held for a year for consideration. You will be notified by email if your photo is selected.
Submit high resolution photos in .jpeg or .jpg format.
You may submit one time per week, with up to 5 photos at a time. All photos must be included in a single email.
Only send photos you have personally taken.
The purpose of the “Your Snapshot” feature is to share interesting photos from members of our military communities stationed in Europe. As such, amateur photographers and non-professionals are highly encouraged to participate.
Photos with watermarks will not be considered.

Subject ideas include cityscapes, museum or historic interiors, seasonal photos, geographical features, unique locations, street scenes, wild or farm animals, or close up shots of local arts and crafts.

Do not feature people or pets. Unidentifiable people in the background are fine.
