crossing

Lisa and I hunted around Greensboro yesterday afternoon for locations and people, as we’re looking to illustrate a number of sections of the eventual The People, Yes interface. I’m not sure how successful we were, but Lisa will be heading out again on her own soon.

Would you like to help?

We’re looking for landscape images (they’ll be used mostly in the header, so think wide and short) of a number of subjects:

  • Memorable locations - it could be an abandoned lot or City Center Park, just try to include people, in some fashion, within an interesting composition
  • Everyday folk at work - from the local barber to an insurance agent, capture them doing their thing
  • Homeless people - stay away from stereotypical images (i.e. beer bottles, strewn clothes, etc.), go for portraits and contextual settings

So if you want to help us out, simply tag your Greensboro-based images on flickr with “thepeopleyes.”

I’ll subscribe to the feed and contact you if we’d like to use your shot (we’re a non-profit, so you’ll have to apply a CC license that allows reuse with attribution). I’ll probably setup a flickr group as well in the near future.

Thanks.

    Sean - if you drive north on Lawndale to Lake Brandt road, you will come across the Lake Brandt Dam. It is a really interesting visual from several angles. If you bring bred with you, the carp and catfish will swell and churn the water. Overall a cool place for an image
