Please note: I acknowledge every photo submission by email. If you sent in a photo for the contest but you did NOT receive an email back from me within 24 hours, please re-send your photo to contest@outlandishobservations.com. Thanks.

After the contest ends, I will be posting a photo slideshow with all the contest entries, so everyone will be able to see these wonderful photos. It's going to be a great collection, but it's not finished yet! Keep those photos coming, please!

About

My name is Karen Henry. I discovered the OUTLANDER books in 2006, and quickly became thoroughly addicted! I started this Outlandish Observations blog in August, 2008, as a central repository for news and information about Diana Gabaldon's books, including new and upcoming releases.

Things have changed a great deal in OUTLANDER fandom in recent years, with many new fans discovering the books as a result of the STARZ TV series. Whether you're a newcomer to OUTLANDER or you've been reading the books for 30+ years, one thing we all have in common is our love for these books and characters and this amazing story that Diana Gabaldon has created.
