Riverlink Photo Opportunity

Riverlink of Asheville, North Carolina is looking for an environmentally minded photographer to create a couple photographs for their Muddy Water Watch campaign.

Riverlink is is a regional non~profit spearheading the economic and environmental revitalization of the French Broad River and its tributaries as a place to live, work and play.

Right now Riverlink is cranking up a statewide Muddy Water Watch photo and video contest. They want folks to send in their best photos and videos of muddy water, and bad construction projects.

Riverlink wants to generate public interest in this contest. Part of their strategy is to create some creative videos and posters that will grab people's attention to participate. They are hoping to create 2-4 videos and 1-2 photographs. The photos will be used for the poster and the video distributed around the web. The ideas for videos and posters that they have so far are below:

- Children running through a sprinkler of water that turns to mud.

- A family eating at the dinner table, drinking glasses of mud

- Man throws out fishing line get stuck in a river of mud

- Kids swinging over river bank, lands in mud, can’t get out.

The project would be done on a volunteer basis and would make a great resume item for a student.

Please contact Hartwell Carson at Riverkeeper@Riverlink.org if you are interested in helping out with this project.
