Cities and Their Souls - Emotions of the current times...
images of our cities across the country and the souls with in, not one class, not one race, All of us and our own souls from coast to coast. The hard times, the elite to the 9-5. Images and stories to tell all. Evoking emotion through out!
You see this book, a book built sturdy and large with one image on the cover. An image that evokes emotion from with in. Wanting to know their story. Now take that image to a grander scheme. Take it across the country to our cities and towns.
With in each town and city there are souls, souls that are at times in hardship, others very well off. Each and every soul with a thought to share or story to tell. Now put those stories with images that evoke a certain emotion deep inside, maybe it's the feeling of helplessness, maybe it's love, maybe it's happiness.
You can see into their eyes and almost feel these souls right there in front of you.
Now with the images of these souls come images of their cities. The places that have molded their minds and energy to what it is. Maybe they were stripped of who they truly were before they fell into this place, or maybe it was this place that made them who they are. Either way...
You have in your hands this wonderful large hard cover book, a book you just don't want to put down. You now want to find a corner and sit to look at each unique image, you want to see where these souls come from and read their stories...
You want to take those images, stories and places to realize that you too are unique, a beautiful person in a place nearly as beautiful....
Because the world is yours...
And after you realize this book is a wonderful piece of our lives you will be able to view these images and stories as they tour around the country with large format 4x6 foot prints or larger to pull you that much further into the lives they live...

This is a very beautiful description of a project. To a degree it has similar aspirations with mine. Only I would like to present a snapshot of the world through the eyes of the children. Good luck with your project and would appreciate your thoughts about mine.
Excellent idea, I especially enjoy the way you wish to show how a city is much like a person and has a soul. I voted for you! Please check out my idea also, its about our global heritage and diversity as American people. And please vote for Father John above, he has been an inspiration.
Good ideas like yours that are not in the Top 100 are nearly impossible to find. This is unfair as many great ideas are hidden. Those of us in the “Sub-100” should work together to promote the best projects of the Sub-100 so that they can be in the Top 100 and be seen. Please vote for best Sub-100s!
I love this idea! check out mine and Pic it if youd like! Congo here I come...
