Well hope it works well.

I sure hope that doesn't mean you won't participate. :fingerscr

Is this being discussed here or elsewhere? I have been laid up for the past several days so I may have missed something and was just curious.

Freelance photographer Lance Rosenfield was working on assignment for ProPublica in Texas City, Texas, last week, when a BP security guard began following him. Rosenfield was later detained by police after taking photos for two ProPublica stories.

Don't forget about the flickr group as well and please post your public photos there!

Awesome. Not quite the thousands I'd hoped for but there's still a couple of weeks yet! :)

So I am wondering if anyone from the Calgary contingent wants to meet up and shoot a photos? I guess the walk time is scheduled for 1:00 p.m. on Saturday? I have to work that evening but could go out and put in a couple of hours. :)
