Anyone Want to Take Photos or Paint?

[rainman]

I wonder if there is anyone who would like to take photographs or make drawings and paintings for my book. Maybe depictions of Norse gods but also some depictions of ideal families, ideal communities, noble, upright people and contrast that with ghetto, slum, deformed, disfigured morons.

I doubt there will be any money made here but I can give a percentage of whatever I make. I'm not really marketing this book to the public. It's for personal use. I'll put $100 price tag or something outrageous on it then anybody on skadi or people that I know I can sell it to them at the publishing cost which will probably still be high- like $20 or something.

It would be good to have some photos of haiti. I would just like some strong emotional impact behind the words like "this is the result of liberalism" and here is the result of living right:. I'm sure I can find all the images I need online but I can't be sure about copyrights. I need original work.

They should have moral lessons. The gods would just be examples of typical or ideal european traits. Here's some examples:

This is how some people live. 325,000 of their children die a year from lack of sanitation.

Here's how people in India live when left alone:

Rainman: Let me dig through my photos. I have 1000's of them over the years. I have some that might be just what the doctor ordered.



Here is a street scene in Paris (may 2009) with an enlargement of the poster on the wall on the left side. I thought it was ironic that the street scene pretty well answers the question asked by the poster.
