37 Fotos

I’ve just started a new group on flickr called 37fotos. Here the idea; Sometime in the late eighties Paul Horowitz, one of the pioneers of SETI, declared that they had received 37 signals indicating signs of possible intelligence. 37fotos is our answer back, put in picture form, rather than a spike in the static of deep space.

So, this is the theme; what sums us, and the planet we all share, up?

Do we simply just show our beauty and that of the world? Our laughter, our diversity of culture, our simple kindness to one another, the beauty of the natural world?
Do we also show the ugly side? Our wars, famines, and poverty?

How do we paint an image of ourselves to someone who has never met us?

How do you choose your 37 fotos ?
