Alamy Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Hi Everyone, Step into March with us as we explore the artistic opportunities that the humble (or not so humble) staircase can provide us with when looking through the lens with a creative eye. Have you stumbled across a stunning staircase or photographed a fancy flight of steps? If you haven't been involved with Alamy Photo of the Month yet, the theme for March is #AlamyStairs, so why not join in? Be inspired: https://www.alamy.com/search/lightbox/5560248.html From sunlight falling across outdoor steps, to the dizzying angles of spiral staircases, we want to see it all. At the beginning of April we'll share our favourites with you and also our customers. Thanks! Louise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they appear on each image but you have to give the Alamy Ref to have a chance to get selected Edo. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYCat Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 (edited) 40 minutes ago, Ed Rooney said: Ah, yet another digital mystery to solve. Alamy ref? Otherwise known as the Image ID.

Good luck! I always add them but most people seem to rely on it being on the image. Do they not get selected? Paulette Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Ventura Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 I did not add them last month and still had 4 selected. So maybe not needed if it shows up in the margin border. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alamy Posted March 6 Author Share Posted March 6 You don't HAVE to add the Alamy image ID but it helps us greatly if you can, as we can much more efficiently add lots of your entries by copy/pasting the ID! 🙏 Thanks for all your entries so far!
