How to send a photo

Upload your images via BBC Weather Watchers or send us an email to [email protected]. To inspire you, see some important tips by three of England’s great photographers.

When emailing photos, be sure to include the following information:

• The full name of the person who took the photographs (as this person owns the copyright)

• Confirmation that the copyright holder gives the BBC permission to use their images in all their productions.

• The place, date and time the photographs were taken.

• Your phone number so we can contact you if we have any further questions.

• Any other details about the images that may be useful for us to know.

Please note that while we welcome all your photographs, we are most likely to use those taken last week.
