#xtremephilately is the art of taking a stamp and finding the object, landscape, person on the stamp in real life and then snapping a photo and sharing it on social media using the hashtag #xtremephilately
There are 2 ways you can take your collecting to the xtreme!
Take a stamp you love and seek out the IRL (in real life) version of what it depicts
See something IRL, and then find a stamp with it on it
It takes some planning either way but the results are xtreme!
Here are some examples to inspire you!
Why not give it a go today?!
