TrekEarth is an
online community of
travel photographers who upload their images to the site. The goal of TrekEarth is to learn more about the world through
photography; it uses an encouraging critique system to enable users to comment on each other's photography. In addition to uploading their own images and critiquing those of others, members can upload post-processed workshop images. The site also contains
forums covering topics ranging from tips and techniques to note-writing.
As of December 2011, the multilingual site hosts over 1,075,538 photographs from 192 countries across the world. TrekEarth is also related to its sister sites
TrekLens and
TrekNature, which cater to the creative and nature communities of photographers.
