Tell us about your world!

So the travelling camera club is almost completely under way, most of the routes are completely planned and you’ll be getting the emails soon but I forgot to ask everyone to do something really important and thats:

don’t just show us your world tell us  We want to know the stories behind the photos, who was in them, when you took them, the lengths you had to go to to get that great shot, why you took them, and, perhaps most importantly, tell us what they mean to you (if anything). The more you add the better!

So write a note giving a little bit of info about each photo you took, then when the photos get developed and uploaded to the site I’ll add the notes as comments under each photo!

Pictures say a thousand words but sometimes it helps to have a bit of context!

Thanks

Phil

Whoop they are printed! check them out!

The travelling camera club is an on going art project devoted to sharing a snapshot of our world. We post disposable camera’s to a group of people all around the world, each person gets 5 photos then posts the camera onto the next person in the route.

Eventually the camera will make it back to the travelling camera club H.Q where it will get developed and the photos will be put online for everyone to see.

If your interested in taking part in the travelling camera club drop us an email at

travellingcameraclub@googlemaill.com

In the subject, write travelling camera club sign up name your name, tell us your address, if you’d be awesome and be willing to buy a camera or if you’d be down for shipping internationally.

Please note we get a lot of americans signing up, whilst thats awesome, it does mean if you live outside of the states its harder for us to make up routes that travel within your country.

North Americans, if you are signing up it would be a major help if you can post the camera internationally, I’m the last person on a route (even if I’m not taking photos I hold all the negatives and scan the photos) and unfortunately right now I’m UK based so I always need someone from North America to post it to me.

Thanks

The Rural Route Rad

I’ve been digging through the archive and reposting the old routes and came across this awesome set from way back in the day, so far back in the day that the project wasnt called the travelling camera club, it was called pic it forward.

This route was one of our first successful routes and I love so much about it, one of the main reasons being is that this route demonstrates the joys of films, in two of the photos (the one with the green light) the photo has accidentally been exposed on two negatives creating something totally un expected and awesome.

Digital cant do that.
