ON APRIL 30, 2009, ONE HUNDRED ST. LOUISIANS stepped up to the line at Ferguson & Katzman Photography and threw their dart at a giant map of St. Louis City. They then had a month to visit the block where their dart landed and make a photograph. The results were fabulous! Here’s a few images from all the entries.

You can see all of them on FK’s blog. I was very impressed with the quality and diversity of images presented.
Gorgeous! Hard to pick a favorite, although I like the old buildings as a group best.
ReplyDeletethis is fantastic! what a project!
ReplyDeleteMixed results with an occasional gem, but a very worthwhile project. I wasn't aware that our city looked so blighted. I wish there would have been more positive images. Loved the kids in Geoff Story's shot.
