Citizen Camera

Okay, so y'all are aware that last weekend was DITLOA and the judging is going on and all that good stuff, but do you know about CITIZEN CAMERA? Citizen Camera, the bright idea of BlogAsheville's Own Ashvegas and DITLOA's Own Clark Mackey, is a flickr photostream of photos taken by, well, citizens. Citizens who happened to be walking by one of the several stations where disposable cameras had been tied. Each camera was left in place for at least 24 hours with attached instructions to take a picture and leave the camera there. The project was a huge success and great fun for everyone involved. And, no, there don't seem to be a whole lot of butt pix, despite what everyone immediately thinks. Can we get a comment on the total number of butt pix submitted, guys?

Anyway, now the cameras are being developed and the shots are rolling in. And the shots are, frankly, amazing (the above is from a Citizen Camera) and also totally fun and also, hey, this is Asheville, you will probably spot some of your friends. So check it out and tell everyone else you know so that they too can look for the late night antics of their friends.

This was the coolest, artiest, most fun idea ever! I don't think there are any butt pics, although I haven't seen three of Clark's contact sheets yet. I expected lots of late-night crotch shots. Any of those?

There was one moon shot and a faux oral shot, and even they are relatively tasteful (operative being 'relatively').

It was all Clark's idea, which he saw someplace else. Kudos to Clark for bringing it to Asheville.
