Wednesday is the deadline for submitting your summer vacation photos

If you work well under deadline pressure, this is the kind of day you’ll revel in.

The deadline for submission of summer vacation photos is 11:59 p.m. Wednesday, as in today, if you would like your photos to be considered for the Sept. 20 “What I Did on My Summer Vacation” issue.

Here are some of the rules you need to know:

--We’re looking for photos from amateurs, not professionals.

--Your photo must have been shot between Memorial Day and Labor Day.

--You may not alter it by, for instance, removing a tree or a piece of trash; by inserting a person into it who wasn’t there; by blending photos.

--You must include your name, city of residence, date and place of photo, the kind of camera used and your email and phone number; we won’t print your contact info but we may need it for verification.

--You may not submit more than 10 photos.

--You may email the photo (which may not be larger than 10MB in one file) to travel@latimes.com with “Summer Vacation Photos” in the subject line; or you can go to this article to find out how to submit through Flickr and Instagram and read more about the rules and regulations.

Happy editing.
