KILLERPARSNIP Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Hello All, I have just found my first Cache (Turls Hill Coppice) and logged it on the site including a photo of what was in the cache, is it O.k to put this sort of photo up ? Thanks all. Killerparsnip Quote Link to comment
+Bear and Ragged Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 (edited) Don't show WHERE the cache is actually hidden. Don't show the location/identifiable items if it's the final of a Multi or Unknown cache -it may give a spoiler. (And don't photograph clues along the way) Don't show the container if it's cammoe'ed as part of the hide. Don't show TB's/coins personal tracking number. Otherwise most photo's are welcome! Edit to add. Be careful if you use a GPS/mobile phone camera, they tag the location to the photo, which can give the game away! UK cachers can be found in the UK and Ireland side of the forums, and there is a West Midlands group here > http://www.wmcaching.co.uk/ Welcome, and congratulations on your first!

+L0ne.R Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Your photo looks great. As a cache owner I appreciate cache contents photos. Let's me see the condition of the cache, that way I know whether it's time to make a maintenance run. Quote Link to comment
KILLERPARSNIP Posted February 24, 2013 Author Share Posted February 24, 2013 Thanks to both of you ,I will bear in mind your comments. Quote Link to comment
+briansnat Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 As long as your pic doesn't give away the location and method of the hide, I think most cache owners would be OK with it. Quote Link to comment
+Brooklyn51 Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 We love to see photos especially of the cachers who found it or anything interesting nearby. Quote Link to comment
+fbingha Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 A photo, even if it might be compromising is >>>>>>>>> than TFTC. Quote Link to comment
+The Blorenges Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 And while on the subject of taking photos, I'll just mention travel bugs and other trackables... If you find one and photograph it to add to a log PLEASE don't show the tracking number in the photograph. Thanks. MrsB Quote Link to comment
+StarBrand Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I love photos of my caches, cache areas as long as you don't give away a unique container or style of hide. Quote Link to comment
+simpjkee Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 As to what kind of picture is acceptable is really up to the cache owner. Every cache owner is different, but there is general ettiquette on pics that people above me have already posted. That said, if you find one of my caches, please feel free to post any and all pictures (of the container/hide or otherwise)! Quote Link to comment
