Vote Now — People Powered Movement Photo Contest

Online voting is now open for the People Powered Movement Photo Contest by the Alliance for Biking and Walking. Cast your vote now for the best photos of people using bike-ped infrastructure, and enjoying the benefits of biking and walking.

The purpose of the contest is to help build the Alliance’s online photo library, a repository of free, high-quality images for grassroots organizations to use on their websites, etc. Anyone who produces good communications materials knows how hard it is to find exactly the right picture to illustrate their web articles, newsletters, flyers, etc. Flickr and Creative Commons licensing are great, but unless photos are created with a purpose in mind, they’re rarely optimal for serving that purpose.

Need a great photo of some properly placed sharrows? A road diet treatment of an arterial road? A well-designed, well-lit crosswalk? Some kids walking to school in a “walking school bus?” Hopefully you’ll be able to find it here. Cast your vote, and help The Alliance pick the best ones.
