So I found out that donating a portion of what you guys as backers have pledged to me is against the community guidelines of kickstarter and how they operate. Nothing against them and I see now and agree with the fact of it. totally still love kickstarter and totally still want to help out people in need, nothing's changed except that i'm not going to use portions of your generous donations to donate to a charity that you may or may not believe in.
So I have to revise that. I want to reiterate that I'm definitely going to use the money to fund my trip and fulfilling your rewards, and I hope that I didn't take away any trust in you guys or the kickstarter environment.
I feel really lucky to have been given an invitation to start a kickstarter for funding my project and want to play nice and within the rules so that I don't hurt their image or their ecosystem because it's a system that I really believe in.
Carry on :-)
This project successfully raised its funding goal on May 9, 2010.

This is a tricky one: A personal portrait of you while I'm on the road. You must live, or be able to travel to a destination no more than 200 miles off of my course. Of course, access to the blog.
In addition to the blog and postcards, a signed, framed and matted, 1 of 5 20x20 photograph from the trip.

I hate third person bios. It's not like someone else is writing it. I'm writing it. I like making photos of things that everyone is able to see, but probably won't make the time in their life to do so. The world is a living creature (without getting mystical) and one day, it won't be the same (without getting evangelical). These are the people, places and things I want you to see.
I was born and raised in Oklahoma and was fortunate enough to be born into a family that values travel, open thought and finding your own way.
I live and work worldwide.
Thanks for this note, Kris. Water.org is a great cause, they work with local people + are sustainable, + I'm linking it up to encourage people to make a lil' donation if they want. I just made one after Kris's giving them props + it only took like 30 seconds. Even though it's not directly related to this project I'm just linking it up to "nudge" anyone who may want to give. http://water.org/
