Collect.Give

I’m really excited to announce my participation in Collect-dot-Give, a new online photography gallery launching today that is devoted to raising money for charity. Collect.Give was created by my buddy and talented photographer Kevin Miyazaki, who very quickly took a great idea and turned it into a reality over the holiday break. The inaugural group of photographers includes some big names that I hope you’ll be excited to support: Susana RaabDalton Rooney, Emily Shur, Allison V. Smith, Kevin, and myself.

For the project I’ve creating a brand new edition of 40 archival 8×10 prints of a new image that I shared on the blog not long ago which I’m calling “World’s Largest Rocket, Kennedy Space Center, 2009.” 100% of the money from print sales will go directly to my charity, Texas Equusearch, which some of you will remember me writing about as well… Texas Equusearch is a non-profit, civilian search and rescue team dedicated to searching for missing persons around the U.S. It’s an important cause that I hope some of you will choose to help support.

So go check out Collect.Give and show your love. Personally speaking I have so much to be thankful for and it’s awesome to have opportunities to give back even in a small way. For $40 why not pick a gift for someone this holiday season and do some good at the same time. And if someone really wants a much larger version of the NASA print just get in touch and we can give back even a bit more.
