Picture Hope: Gathering Images for the Journey


Picture Hope: Gathering Images for the Journey from LittlePurpleCow Productions on Vimeo.

Tomorrow will be two weeks since we first announced the Shutter Sisters Picture Hope Dream Assignment. Since that time we've watched in total awe as this community and our friends around the globe have taken this dream and skyrocketed it to the Name Your Dream Assignment Top Ten.The outpouring of support has been nothing short of phenomenal.

If you haven't voted yet, it's not too late. Vote hope now, and when you're finished, come right back and pick up that camera. Because we are convinced this community like no other has a heart for hope, every single time you see through that lens. Add your images to the Picture Hope Flickr Pool and watch with us as our dream unfolds into hope notes in hand and a way to make it really happen--no matter what happens when the contest ends. How hopeful is that?

Will you take Picture Hope to number one, sisters? Vote here (if you haven't already) and invite everyone in your circle to do the same. Registration takes just a minute, promise. Voting ends this Friday at midnight.

Hi! As a world traveler who wishes she was a great photographer and who is absolutely committed to transformation, hope, possibility, beauty and all that... I asked all my facebook friends to vote for you yesterday. Yay! You are #1 now! I don't know if my friends voted; I *hope* so! I may remind them again later today to make sure it's in the bag.
What a beautiful idea. Cannot wait to see what you guys produce. I'm just back from a six-city tour of Nepal and India (biz trip). Soooo much hope there to document.
Good luck!

We can't thank you enough for your votes, love, and support. Truly.
Looks like you are number one! I've been a long time follower of your blog - here's another (I hope) great idea:

“Peace did not come into my life. My life escaped, and peace was there.” (Leonard Cohen)

I’ve been looking at hope lately as peace. Like the peace that resides in your heart when you know that as long as you hold onto hope, every bit of doubt and chaos in your life will work itself out. It may not be tomorrow or even next week, but when you hold onto hope, it will hold you up until it all works out.

That hope is what brings me peace.
