Patrik can you clarify the rules on multiple photos submitted by the one photographer? I've seen submissions where there are 3-4 in a post that you've accepted, but I've also seen you say (I think) that you can't submit more than one entry, so I'm confused. Do they just have to all be in a single post? And do you consider each photo in the post individually in that case? Apologies if you've addressed this somewhere already, I couldn't find anything in the guidelines. Thank you!

Sure thing!

3-4 photos in a single restack is okay, multiple restacks with different entries are not okay and only the first restack will be considered. You are however allowed to change your submission should you choose, but please notify me about it, otherwise I will automatically dismiss it.

If a restack has more than one photo I will choose my personal favorite out of the ones submitted for the challenge.

Hope that clears it up a bit :)

I'll see if I can clarify the rules for the next challenge, been a lot of new people to both Substack and this community so it might need an update!

Such a fun one! My submission brought me back to my first roadtrip with my best friend, when we spent a sun-soaked morning in the botanical garden 🪷🌸🌷🌼🌞 I still remember how alive I felt that day. Thank you Patrik!! https://substack.com/@theasianastrologer/note/c-48794617?

Vibrant can be anything, colourful or a single colour, vibrancy is what we consider it to be so have fun 🙂 I have no doubt you'll come up with something amazing!

Took a photo of an Orchid Tree flower. I posted but not sure if I did it correctly.

The instructions are in the post for next time, but basically you tag me @PatrikL and restack the post with your submission. I'll count it this time though so no worries.

Jarede's avatar

Wait!! I want to learn how to do it.

Where do I find notes?

How do I tag you?

Can I submit another doing it myself?

Patrik L's avatar

Well, you see the two arrows going in a circle at the top or bottom of the post? Click that to restack the post, then you tag me using @PatrikL like that and submit the photo you want to submit.

You can submit up to 4 photos at once in the same restack. I only accept one restack per submission. So don't restack the post 4 times to submit 4 different photos, only use a single restack with all the photos in one.

You can resubmit it, go ahead. I believe that the instructions in the post should help, but I might have to update them moving forward.

Hello Patrik, someone here passed this on to me so I submitted a photo for the "Vibrant" challenge.

It's a lovely photo, Michelle but unfortunately I can't count it as the challenge had closed at the time of your submission. But thank you for participating! Hope to see you participate next week!

I’m new to Substack so I was able to add it to Notes but for some reason I can’t seem to get it to tag you? So sorry, I’m learning how to navigate this site as part of a writing course I’m in. I love photography, it’s been a passionate hobby of mine for several years.

No worries, I found your submission Rose! I don't know why it won't allow some to not tag me, but it seem to be a current occurrence at the moment. Hopefully it's just a bug that'll be fixed soon.
