LomoLocationsに関するガイドライン

現在英語版が掲載されていますが、日本語版も直ぐに登場します。もうしばらくお待ち下さい。
The following guidelines have been prepared for you to see what it is that we look at before we publish a location. As you will see, the guidelines allow for personal freedom yet they point out several things that you should think about when writing an entry. A location should be a location. What we mean by this is that a location entry should be a specific place, not a general city. Therefore, Paris is not good, but the Eiffel Tower is great.

Do keep in mind that these are guidelines, not rules. The last thing we want to do is to put a leash around your neck and take the joy out of writing a review.

Published reviews (either type) will receive 5 piggy points.

Historical or Cultural Reviews

Overview

Meant to give the reader an overview about the historical and cultural significance of the place, this type of review should focus more on the place than on you.

This type of review should not be limited to what you would traditionally think of as historical or cultural, although that also is an option. If you want to write about a factory, a football field, your local church or even about that weird looking house down your street, then feel free to do so.

Title

Please include the name of the place here.

Content (Try to keep it between 100 – 300 words)

Start by telling the audience why you find this place worthwhile being mentioned. Also mention what location you are talking about, and where it is located.

Go into some more details, for example (if applicable) mention when it was built, who lived there, what is it used for today, political background and other similar good bites. Also include information such as directions to this site, entrance fees, best time of year to visit, etc.

End with a personal touch! Try to point out some things that should be avoided or something that you recommend to other users.

Personal Experiences

Overview

This type of review is for you to share your experiences. This is the perfect place to tell us about your favorite beach, restaurant, an event you went to (other than Lomography events of course, there is a whole section for that!) or simply about a place that you went for a chill afternoon. Write from the heart.

Title

Please include the name of the place here.

Content

(Try to keep it between 100 – 300 words)

Meant to be written freely, you can divide your story into sections or keep it in one paragraph. What you could tell us in this review could be why you where there, what makes this place special to you, who you were with, what the mood was like, was this your first time here, will you come back and so on. We want to know about your experiences, firstly, all the rest comes second!
