g'day swellnet people
im new to this so please bare with me and excuse me if it has been asked previously or im in the wrong section but how does one go about getting their images on wave of the day on swellnets homepage? is it exclusively for swellnets photographers or can anyone sumbit a photo? is there certain restrictions that need to be followed eg file type and size.

thanks in advance!

x2 on that. Judy's got some crackers from yesterday on her Instagram. Really captures the rawness and power of the Southern Ocean.

Great pic of such a picture perfect spot, only every surfed here once as a 13 year old grommet which was perfect for me at the time

Pity it just doesn't get the swell, and where is the normal crowd?

In the mid to late sixties, this place was considered one of the state's premier high performance waves.

So this is the guy from today's wotd?

Awesome.

Today's photo looks intense, hiding the fact that it is as thick as it is high.

Just curious, is there a reason the wotd doesn't have its own 'Latest comments' function?

Yeah, it was something Ben, Craig, and I decided on a while ago because we didn't want locations being named in the comments. When we post WOTD shots on FB or Instagram we often have to delete posts that name a wave, so we simply didn't want to have to police a daily WOTD thread and give ourselves any more work.

If the surf community got to a point where naming waves was just not done then we may change it.

Yea now you mention it I think you've mentioned this before....soz. I get it.

"If the surf community got to a point where naming waves was just not done then we may change it."

Yea that'd be great, but unlikely I reckon.

Awesome caption.

After being heavily exposed to Kiwi bro gym culture over the past decade I’ve been employing the phrase ironically all too often.

It’s good to see it somewhere else.

Cracking Jack Dekort pic today (Aug. 3rd)- not huge, not life-threatening but gorgeous colours, bright QLD winter sunshine and a beautiful take your pick peak. Rarely get homesick but that pic does it for me.

Comments about Peter Jovic WOTD's are spread between a couple of threads but again, this time from the water- nailed it!

There's a few photogs on here that I love their work but Jovic is a standout imo.
