To submit images to Picture Calls in fotoLibra, simply click on the Picture Call megaphone icon below a thumbnail in your Collections, and select the relevant OS Landranger Land's End & Isles Of Scilly picture call from the drop-down menu which appears. Pictures must be marked as Rights Managed, and should not be sent direct to me.

Sometime over the weekend we passed the six hundred thousandth image upload to fotoLibra. We're not the biggest rights managed picture library, but we're getting pretty big. Congratulations are due to you all.

The Ordnance Survey, Britain's (and probably the world's) leading mapmakers, produce a range of maps for every conceivable usage. Most familiar to the general public will be the pink LANDRANGER series and the orange EXPLORER series. The maps are a familiar sight in every type of shop across Britain. The Landranger series are all purpose maps packed full of information to help people really to get to know an area. 

We have been asked to provide the cover image for the new Landranger 203 map covering Land's End & Isles of Scilly in south-western England. This is the previous image they used for this area:

Land's End & Isles of Scilly

This is the map to use when planning a holiday or day trip to Land’s End, Isles of Scilly, St Ives and Lizard Point. There are many attractions in the area from picturesque villages to coastal walks.

Highlights of the area include:

- Tate Gallery, St Ives
- Cromwell’s Castle, Tresco
- Lizard Point
- Newlyn

Please remember that unlike the Explorer series, no people need be seen in Landranger covers.
