In his post Fight For Your Right... to Dry, Sean challenged readers to "take artistic photos of outdoor clotheslines that show both beauty and vitality." On National Hanging Out Day we upped the ante by adding a coveted copy of Jim Kunstler's World Made By Hand as a prize.
Our esteemed judges, Graham Hill and Meaghan O'Neill, have chosen Photo Unrest's shot of a clothesline in Venice, Italy as the winner. Send us an email and we will send you the book!
Can we see the other photos?
LA go to flickr and enter tag treehuggerclothesline
Damn, I wish I'd known about this -- I spent a semester in Italy and cataloged all the laundry I saw at http://www.laundryitaliano.blogspot.com/
Not too much disrespect, but that's a really, really average photograph. Kudos to clotheslines, though.
I agree, it is an average photo.
And that lady down there ruins it for me. She looks too modern or something, next to the building.
I think that more people should do that. To me it is a beautiful photo.
