Photo Auction for Hurricane Relief Effort

In the wake of the devastation of Hurricane Katrina, several photographers at Flickr are auctioning off prints. From the group's home page:

Donate a print of one of your images to be auctioned off to the highest
bidder. All proceeds will be donated to the American Red Cross
Emergency Relief Fund to assist those tragically affected by Hurricane
Katrina.

If you would like to join this group to auction off your own print or to bid on a print please visit the Katrina Relief Auction.

There's also an article about all of the photographers covering the catastrophe, and Laforet has posted many of his photos on the SportsShooter.com website.

Our thoughts and prayers remain with the people of New Orleans and all the surrounding areas. Please contribute to the relief efforts.
