Project Educate: Transport Photography WeekTransport Week Round-Up
Transport Photography is a hard nut to break sometimes. Most people either are into it seriously or they just capture the odd motion shot of transport here and there without really planning. Either way is fine of course - hopefully the past week has offered a little insight into the types of things that can be found in the Transportation Gallery and a few handy hints and tips here and there.

1. Reflections
It never ceases to amaze me how quickly a year can fly by.  I've made it a practice over the years to sit back and reflect on the year, what went well, what didn't and where I'd like to see the new year go.  A year can bring a lot of lessons and without reflection it's hard to ensure that you've taken away everything important from it.  I apply this personally and to deviantART and it's that time again :squee:
A couple of fun highlights:

Recently, I announced changes to Daily Deviations in this journal and I'm happy to say that the response has been favorable.  To review, we have made the following changes:
a> The "3-month rule" is now the "6-month rule" meaning an artist cannot receive another DD if they have had one in the last 6 months.
b> Daily Deviation selectors are limited to a maximum of one selection per day.  This has been put in place to focus on quality vs quantity.
The hard-coding of these new guidelines is now in place (special thanks to $ZombieCoder for that :heart:). 
These changes are part of an ongoing initiative to better our Dai

Project Educate: Architecture and Urban & Rural Photography Week
An introduction to the Urban & Rural Photography gallery
Hi there and welcome to the Project Educate week for Architecture and Urban & Rural Photography! Before the week can really start off, we need to find out what Architecture and Urban & Rural Photography are really about. In later articles, we will also go in depth on the subcategories of both galleries. We started off with exploring Architecture Photography in an earlier article, it's time for Urban & Rural Photography now!
Urban & rural photography, found as photography subcategory Photography > Urban & Rural, is photography focusing on the entire area rather than an individual building or structure (like with Architecture). It is described

"Take Only Photographs, Leave Only Footprints." - Urban Explorers Creed
Sometimes it's easy to forget the things around us that were once iconic and useful. In everyday life that could include a multitude of household objects, bits and bobs, clothes, gadgets - all sorts. But in Photography - a specific aspect of Photography - people close doors and board up buildings sometimes with little or no notice. They erect a fence around that old asylum and ship everything out or they install security guards at the boundaries of an army camp. Those places get forgotten and one day there will be nobody left that will remember them. That's where Urban Exploration comes in.
I'm not telling you to go out and scale the wall of your nearest derelict hospital in the name of photography. It takes a certain kind of person (and agility!) to do that anyway, but there are many depths to U

Fan Art in Artisan Crafts

:iconkasumicr:



Continuing with our series of articles about different forms of Fan Art, today we are going to talk about Artisan Crafts.  


The Definition



"Tangible craft work created by the artist, typically created for utilitarian use or decorational purposes. Only the tangible, finished product belongs into the Artisan Crafts galleries. There is a wide variety of artisan crafts, including pottery, textiles, needlework, wood, metal, leather, glass, jewelry, culinary arts and much more." - `MyntKat, former Artisan Crafts Volunteer.


"work that has been imagined and designed by the artist and then replicated in a form that is different to drawing/painting such as wool, felt, wood, metal etc. Or work that is taken from a 2D reference and then made into something else, like a my little pony etc." - `UnicornReality, Artisan Crafts Community Volunteer


Some awesome Artisan Crafts:








How does this apply to deviantART and the Fan Art Gallery?



The Fan Art gallery doesn't have an Artisan Crafts category, therefore any crafts that display any copyrighted characters or items need to be submitted in the Artisan Crafts gallery and its categories, depending on the type of craft made.



Examples of Fan Art in the Artisan Crafts Gallery





 






Thanks a lot to `MyntKat and `UnicornReality for their collaboration. :heart:

An thank you very much for your attention, my lovely deviants! :love:

You go to Sta.sh, choose Compose in Sta.sh Writer on the top right put your text and then click Continue at the bottom. When the new page loads, you'll see a preview of the journal. At the bottom you can change the name and under that you can select the category it goes in.

If what I said seems a bit confusing, I suggest this tutorial by ^KovoWolf which explains how to submit to other categories instead of Journals > Personal with Sta.sh writer.
