Request for photographs of crosses

Roger Cicala · 11th of December 2008 (Thu)

A local pubisher asked us to circulate their request for photographers who might be interested in submitting photos for this project:

_Crossings is a coffee-table sized photo book of crosses from around the world, each enhanced by words of encouragement, hope, and inspiration. Crossings displays unique images of the cross with a simple thought or verse from scripture that relates historically, chronologically, geographically and inspirationally. God is at the center of the Cross, of each and every cross... and every crossing._

They are requesting submission of web sized photographs (watermarked is fine) for consideration by their editorial board. If the photograph is selected they will offer compensation for single-use rights in the book, and the photographer will be credited on the photograph page. Click here http://www.3incpublishing.com/?q=crossings for more information and to register to submit photographs for consideration.

It's just very slow. And also seems to exclude everyone outside of the USA.

Other than vouching for the lady who started the project I really don't have any other knowledge about the specifics. But I can say if you drop her an email she'll talk your ear (well fingers) off about it, she's uber enthusiastic

I do have a collection of Cross taken from different places in the Philippines. I never posted my Cross collection in any website.

Sounds interesting. Might look into it later when I'm not on my phone.

There's a 200ft cross by where I live. Want a picture of that

By websize, they want 400x600(or so) for consideration purposes? Are they wanting higher res copies of those chosen for publication?
(I'm just debating how big of a watermark to leave on the websize photo lol)
