Submit Your Best Shot For Tiverton-Little Compton Patch's Facebook Banner Photo

It's the large space on Facebook's Timeline design to put a photo that speaks to you.

Attention keen photographers! Tiverton-Little Compton Patch always welcomes your submitted photos for publication. The new Facebook Timeline redesign gave a huge space to post your banner photo. As we converted to the new look, it became obvious that the banner photo should say something about the towns. We called out for ideas on Facebook and photographer Meredith Brower sent in the spectacular shot of Fogland Point. More photos followed. We plan to switch out the banner photo every couple of weeks or so, depending on what we have. If you think you have, or want to take, a great photo to share for the Facebook banner photo, send to tiverton@patch.com or post it on the Facebook page. We'll see it. And of course, if you have a photo you'd …
