Another 10km square completed, NG91 in northwest Scotland. Still other gaps to fill by those who get into the wilds www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i...

Another milestone* reached, with 8 million photos now available on the site, all geolocated and CC-licensed from Great Britain and Ireland. A great record of our diverse islands. More photos always welcome!

*statistical milestone, we have tens of thousands of photos of actual milestones

Our first photo, submitted 20 years ago today. Now over 7,950,000 photos of Britain and Ireland on the site - where will our eight millionth be?
www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4

Three recently submitted photos, typical of the winter so far. Over 10,000 photos submitted already this year, as we rapidly approach our 8 millionth photo in the archive

2024 in numbers:
268,748 photos submitted (bringing total to 7,915,829) by 622 contributors, covering 84,497 grid squares. Still more areas without photos in Ireland and the wilds of Scotland, and many more details and changes to record where we do have photos.
2025 will bring our 20th birthday!

Another 10km square completed, NB03 on Lewis with a photo of a ruined shieling www.geograph.org.uk/photo/7933626

But, of course, the more photos the better in any square. Every visit brings a new perspective and maybe different weather or season. And things change, though some places quicker than others.

Where don't we have photos? In England and Wales it is mostly mudflats, islets and MOD land, in Scotland there are still gaps - good targets if you want to get somewhere rarely visited. 3359 squares left out of 244,324. Lots of areas still without photos in Ireland. www.geograph.org.uk/mapper/

We get about 5000 photos submitted each week, these are selection of some of the recently taken ones.

The website has been running for almost 20 years, and has many archive photos uploaded from before that. Some things stay much the same, others come and go. We're building an archive of all of it, and having fun exploring our islands along the way

We get everywhere, mountains, beaches, towns, paths, rivers, forests and everything in between

To introduce ourselves here, we are a website collecting geographically interesting photos of Britain and Ireland, all geolocated and CC licensed for reuse. Still some grid squares with no photos, others with many, recording different details and changes over seasons and years. www.geograph.org.uk
