#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!

  1. Take a stamp you love and seek out the IRL (in real life) version of what it depicts

  2. 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?!

If you could take any #xtremephilately photo on earth (or in the universe!), what would you aspire to take?
