Scenes of Nebraska Calendar

Photo Submission Guidelines

​Specifications for Submission
  • Don't forget we require a minimum size and resolution for your photos. Horizontal orientation is needed for the larger month photos, while smaller photos featured on the back cover can be either horizontal or vertical.
  • Ideal sizing is at least 9" wide at 300 dpi.
    • We certainly wouldn't want to disregard your photo only because it doesn't meet our size requirements. Smaller or lower resolution files may be used for the inside covers or small month photos.
  • Digital files must be supplied as a JPG, TIF or PDF.
  • Always check your camera settings. Images should be taken at the largest and best quality settings the camera can produce. Most cameras have low-, medium- and high-resolution choices.
  • Please do not edit your photos, i.e., adjusting contrast, lighting, adding a watermark, or other forms of editing. Photos that are deemed over-edited may be disqualified.
  • We accept submissions for both color photos or black and white images.
Submit Your Photo(s)!

​To submit photos for the 2025 calendar, please email them to

Photography Tips
No matter where you live in Nebraska, the most beautiful landscapes, cityscapes and wildlife scenes can be seen every day of the year.

Here are some tips to keep in mind when taking photos:
  • Think about taking images that are appropriate for each month. We look for photos that represent Nebraska in all of its seasons.
  • Think of the many holidays throughout the year and what images would be fitting to display during that particular month.
  • Think outside the box. Well-known landmarks are obvious choices for photos. But think of other locations or subjects that you wouldn't necessarily think of as "Nebraska." We're always looking for unique images!

If you are a banker at one of our member banks or are related to a member banker, we encourage you to submit your photos for consideration in our next calendar!

Notes for Ordering Calendars:​
  • If your bank placed an order last year, the billing, shipping and order quantity information should be saved in your Aradius account.
    • Once you log in, there will be a button giving you the option to "Reorder" with the same parameters and quantities as last year.
    • To find the "Reorder" button, go to the little person icon at the top right corner, then to "My Orders," then click on the order number.
    • If you would like to use the same design as last year but are ordering a different quantity or perhaps have a different shipping address to add, click the "Reorder" button to add the item to your shopping cart. Then, click the "edit" button.
  • You can pay directly via credit card when you order. This payment method is preferred, as it will help the order processing go smoother.
  • There will also be an option to receive an invoice, which should be paid before the calendars are shipped.
  • There is no price difference between color and black/white logos. All calendars are the same base price of $1.20 per calendar.
