ALSO
I wanted to put this in a seperate entry so it wouldn't get lost in work crap.
I've been thinking about this for awhile and I kind of want to do some sort of photo project thing. Basically what's been floating around in my mind is buying disposable cameras and mailing them off to people who feel like participating. When they get them, they take pictures (of whatever they want; themselves, their families, their houses, towns, pets, friends...whatever, the sky's the limit) and then mail the cameras back to me. After getting them, I'll get the film developed and then take the pictures I like and make some sort of scrapbook out of it (you can either request that the photos be sent back to you or I'll just dispose of them). Once the scrapbook is complete, I'll see about somehow making copies of it to mail to all of the participants. Or something.
It's a really rough idea of what I have in mind and obviously it will require quite a bit of financing (cameras, developing the film, making some sort of book out of all the pictures together) so I'll need to think on it more (maybe having everyone by their own disposable cameras and sending them to me or taking photos with a digital if they have one), but I really think it would be awesome to do something like this. And it wouldn't even have to be just for my own friends list, anybody could do it. It would be sort of like an LJ photo project for anyone who wants to participate.
But yeah. Would anyone even be interested in doing/seeing something like that?
