VISITED PLANET
Visited
Planet has been designed with an intention to fund further travel, promote
growth of the database and particularly to aid impoverished people around the
world. A percentage of funds raised through image sales goes towards
supporting a different indigenous people group, charity or aid
organization. These funds are designed to educate, equip
and encourage these people; many whom are very generous despite their limited
resources and willingly share their food, homes and lives which are documented
in photographs on this website. Read more...

5 Quick Photo Ideas
1. Get up early and explore your garden or local park for flowers, insects,
birds and other native animals.
2. Keep an eye out for local sporting events. There could be little athletics,
football, swimming or other sports held locally.
3. Go to the beach for a variety of shells, sands, driftwood, waves,
sandcastles, surfers and water sports.
4. Head into the inner city for plenty of people shots, shopping, restaurants
and movement.
5. The local markets are a great way to stock up on food images like fresh
fruit and veges, fish, arts and crafts.

Planet correspondence course.
