Environmental Images

I’d like to repeat this call for submissions as I haven’t heard from many of you. I appreciate the responses I’ve gotten, but I’m certain that there are many more out there. So…

Environmental Images is an online platform for displaying environmentally focused photography by local photographers documenting their local issues.

We are searching for local photographers engaged in documentary work centered around environmental issues. Photo-essays may relate to social issues tied to environmental degradation or may focus on positive initiatives such as preservation, conservation, community responses to environmental degradation, as well as the impacts of unregulated globalization.

Environmental Images is a non-profit with the goal of highlighting exceptional environmental photography by local photographers. The copyright of all participating photographers will be protected and although we aim to enhance your sales, we do not take any percentage. All organizations and image buyers interested in your work will be directed to you, the photographer. If you are a photographer with a body of work about environmental issues, please send us low-resolution images, accompanying text including locations and a short biography about yourself. If you are chosen for the project you will be given an online gallery space and profile page. We will then promote your work to environmental non-profits and image buyers throughout the world.

Please ask any local photographers documenting these issues to email submissions to: submissions@environmentalimages.org

Thank you for your support.

Sincerely,

Tom Dooley

Hi Thomas, it seems interested, but I guess its hard for people to get a sense of who Environmental Images are, when we can’t see your website – www.environmentalimages.org just shows an empty directory.

Unfortunately the site is at very early stages. I do however have a BETA version up as a subdomain to my own page. I invite you to check it out here: http://www.dooleyphotography.com/indigenousenvironment/

The login and password are both: test

Hi Thomas :) I will be working on an enviromental project in the coming months. Will you be accepting submissions in the coming months?

Thanks for the interest. I will definitely be accepting submissions in the coming months. Please keep me in mind when you’re beginning to push your work.

What about a collective as opposed to an individual photographer. I am teaching photography to an Indigenous People who live in the Amazon rain-forests, and they took some amazing photos of conservation projects and environmental degradation resulting from both legal and illegal incursions on their land, and are developing a means to build an archive.

When do you think this will get going? I need to explain the details to them, and do you have a contract that I could give them re: your intentions etc.

P.S. Some photos can be seen here: http://www.narobe.com/PRUpdates.html
