Washington Post Magazine’s Photo Editor Keith Jenkins is an avid blogger and user of the community photo sharing website Flickr. After seeing lots of good photography produced by D.C. photobloggers and members of the D.C. area Flickr group, he decided to create a feature in the magazine highlighting some of the online community’s best work.
He has invited anyone who “regularly posts photos to their own photoblog or flickr site” to submit photos to the new “Blog City” feature, which has been well received by the online group. To contribute your photos send up to 3 per month that are at least 300 dpi and 8×10 inches to Keith at blogcity (at) washpost.com. We here at DCist applaud the Post on introducing the feature, and we have been inviting Flickr users to contribute to our photos page for a little while now.
The Post Magazine’s Blog City feature is not the first time a local print publication has created a perminant feature from blog content – the City Paper now prints one of Frank Warren’s postcards from his Post Secret project in the back page of each edition. The photo above was posted to Flickr (and DCist photos) by photoblogger Justin Johnson.
