Not an action but if someone asked you to give them the bird for a photograph. Would you just do it by simply being asked? Would it take some crazy idea? How would you want to be approached?

I'm going to be doing a new project and it involves me asking people to flip me off so I can photograph it. I want to be able to convince people to flip me off but not just normal people. I'd like to have cops, firemen, construction workers (yeah im sure this will be easy), teachers, rabbi's, priests etc.

Why am I doing this? In short I believe that intentions are greater than words or actions and I want to convey this through the bird. Many birds in fact.

w/ how PC the world has become, i doubt you will get many in some of those professions to oblige you. not w/ their careers on the line if it got out and as always, misrepresented by the public or the media.


i have known a few priests who would have done it back in the day tho
(they are ppl to ya know!)

It's pretty simply to god a DOF that makes them not so visible but still visible enough. I think if I have any chance at those it is really going to take a longer conversation with some stipulations from the person. I definitely don't want anyone getting fired over it and can come up with all kinds of creative ways to mask their identity.
