    Thank You From Africa

    Hello!
    I wanted to send a quick THANK YOU to all who have continued to back the P3 Project. We are sitting in Casablanca right now getting ready for the second leg of flights to Nairobi and then Tanzania. I am very thankful for you support and it helps keep me motivated to shoot while on this trip (while also balancing sharing the experiences with Sabrina). I'm really looking forward to part 2 of Africa and then Nepal in a month or so.

    take care!

    3 Days To Go And A Special Offer To All Who Support PPPP

    As the deadline for The People, Places and Patterns Project looms like a giant, big, looming thing only 3 days away, I want to take this moment to thank those (currently)41 of you who have pledged your support for this project. While it is looking just a wee bit like the goal will not be reached in time, I want to show my thanks by offering you, and anyone else who pledges to the project, a permanent 30% off coupon to Hidden Creek Photography (http://hiddencreekphoto.com). This coupon will be honored as long as I draw breath on any photo I sell, even if I become ultra super rich and famous. It's like a black American Express card, but better.

    And it's not too late for anyone sitting on the fence. Just think, if the project doesn't get funded 100% nothing comes out of your pocket and you STILL will get the 30% discount. You can't lose!

    Thank you!

    Adding more flesh and scope to the project

    It's time for another People, Places and Patterns Update!! (http://pppproject.com)

    On suggestion from a fellow photographer I met yesterday, I've added to the project description. In short, I've included the types of photographs and video I plan on bringing back. I find it works well to have a general list of what I want to bring back with me (while also being wholly open to letting the trips unfold in front of me).

    To that end, here is a compilation of of what is on my radar for each of the locations:
    History, distances traveled, daily life, countryside, city life, every day life, work, markets, camels, mountains, coast, ethnic groups, religion, smiles, examples of adaptations for climate, food, spices, nightlife, tightly shot panoramas, crowds, modern life meeting old world traditions, wildlife, school children, classic safari images, Kilimanjaro, big game, tourist towns, rural life, transportation, culture, smiles, impacts of economic recession, birds, sweeping panoramas, history, The Great Migration, food preparation, village life, subsistence farming, tourism impact, Sherpa life, classic trekking, more sweeping panoramas of the Himalayas, parties and celebration, dancing, singing, commerce

    If there is any thing specific you'd like brought back, please email me peter@thecareyadventures.com

    The lists have started!

    I'm big on lists to make projects a success. While I came up with a few lists before kicking on this project, I'm now most excited about my latest set of lists. These include one for schools to visit, one for libraries to show at and one for community groups to get involved with. I'm really excited to already have some data to fill the lists! If you have a local school or community group who you think would like to see this free presentation, please drop me a line.

    I also received the first batch of postcards which have been sent out. If you'd like to have one of these oversized monsters show up in your mailbox, please send me your address and I'll get one out to you. If you have a couple of community bulletin boards they can be tacked to, I'd be glad to send you a few! Just email peter@thecareyadventures.com

    Thanks!
