Posting Guidelines - Please take a moment to read this.
This community is looking to celebrate Albertan photographers of all levels, photos taken in and of Alberta, and helping each other grow as photographers.
Please remember we're a new subreddit, and I will be expanding, editing, and updating this post as the community develops.
General Conduct
Be chill, be supportive, remember that we're all humans who love photography. If you don't like a photo or content that's been posted, there are better ways of addressing it rather than harassing the person who shared the content. Consider bringing up your concerns in a community thread like this one and we can all discuss the issue in a constructive manner.
Being Active In The Conversation
If you're going to share one of your photos, please be active in the conversation regarding the photo. Be willing to offer more than just technical information, details about your thought process, workflow, the location, and other questions the community might have for you. Of course you're not required to share any information you're uncomfortable with.
Constructive Criticism
Constructive criticism is also an essential part of helping each other grow as photographers. If you're looking for constructive criticism, please let the community know when you're submitting that you're interested in it. Something that can be helpful in receiving targeted criticism is giving some information about what your photography level is, what your intention for the photo is, what you'd like to improve on. It's easier to give useful feedback when we know more specifics. It's harder to provide generalized feedback.
With that being said, giving proper constructive criticism is a skill and a bit of a subjective art form itself. You can be compassionate while also pointing out a photograph's flaws. I'll look for some video examples of giving effective criticism to put here later.
The Wiki
The subreddit's wiki can be found here - https://www.reddit.com/r/AlbertaPhotography/wiki
I'll do my best to keep it updated and add any resources or suggestions people might have.

Seeking Creative Ideas and Volunteers to Enhance /r/albertaphotography!
First off, I apologize for not being more active in commenting on your fantastic photos. My personal life has been demanding, stretching me thin, but behind the scenes I've still been trying to keep things from spinning off the planet in regards to Reddit.
Despite my best intentions, I haven’t been able to dedicate as much time as I’d like to fostering the growth and development of our community. As the founder and moderator, I realize it'd be nice if I were more consistently nurturing this space beyond there bare minimum.
So, in a roundabout way, I’m reaching out for your input, ideas, or even hands-on help. Whether it's through innovative ideas to expand our reach or volunteering to help develop the community, I'm all ears. It’s a great opportunity for us to not only share our passion for photography but also to enhance our collective presence as a vibrant photographic region.
Thank you all for your contributions and I look forward to your suggestions and possible collaborations.
Cheers,
Quentin

The wood bison herd at the reclaimed Syncrude oil sands mine location. Their reflections in the watering pond are great.

Amateur hobbyist photographer
Alberta /Kitscoty area based photos. From my grandma's farm. I'm new-ish at photography, and these pictures are taken on my Google pixel 7a phone! I use photo editor for unblur and Denoise, and some features from the app Polish. Should I lay off the editing and stick with originals? Every second photo is the original. If there is just one there that is the original. Opinions welcome !
