Dear Reader,

At Travel + Leisure, we’re passionate about connecting with travelers and learning about the trips that inspire them to continue seeking new experiences around the world. As you share your adventures with us, our own must-see lists continue to grow.

And while we can’t get everywhere (though we’re working on it), photography is one of the most powerful tools that can transport us to a faraway place and moment in time. Every day on our Instagram account, we invite our readers to inspire millions by sharing their photos with the hashtag #tlpicks.

Today, we’d like to invite you to take it one step further by submitting your absolute favorite travel photographs to T+L’s Photo of the Day Contest. This competition allows us to showcase your talent while seeing the world through your eyes, because sometimes we all need a reminder of how important it is to get out there and explore. We’ll feature our favorite submissions from the year in a special section of our magazine.

So whether it’s a rugged coastal town set against the perfect summer sunset or an unexpected animal sighting in the Serengeti, we invite you to share your travel photos with us. Who knows? You might just find it on the newsstands.

Travel well,
Nathan Lump, Editor in Chief
