I am planning to send an article and associated photographs to UK-based (or any other country in Eu) english photo publication. But I am not sure which one(s) are most regarded and/or interested in outdoor/nature photogrpahy.

Can you guys help in recommending some? My visit to local bookstore and searching internet produced a long list of UK-based magazine - but as I don't live there, I am not sure which one(s) are appropriate or leading publications.

Thanks for your help

I guess Outdoor Photography is the leading publication in this field in the UK. They have a contributors guidelines page here: http://www.thegmcgroup.com/page--Contribute-to-Outdoor-Photography--ste_MagOPCon.html

There is Outdoor Photography in the UK. My view on it is that it is at best average and seems more and more geared to landscape photography. Nevertheless it is the only english "nature photography" magazine.

You could also try Naturfoto, this is a German magazine but they also take articles written in english.In my opinion : quality wise the best magazine in Europe. One other option is a dutch magazine Grasduinen, similar in style to Outdoor Photography.

Do a search in Google, they all should show up.

If the article is about Birds then there is Birds Illustrated http://www.birdsillustrated.com/ - this is not strictly a photography magazin and it has a relative small readership, but it may be of interest.
