I wonder if the advertisers will get to pay less for an hour less.

I'll have to guiltily admit, I turned my electrics back on at 9.30 too. Of course I had a few less bulbs than this!
I love the ChalkMaster's notice (and his pic is nice too), and amazing you got so much depth of field out of f7.

Great shoots. Will think about printing it on canvas

funny enough AMC seems to have got things backwards.

That is a beautiful thing. Earth Hour should happen more often.

Great! I knew you'd document Earth Hour. I observed it with a friend in central NY small town by playing Mexican Train by kerosene lamp and drinking whiskey. Great opportunity for a variety of interactions other than watching movies.

Dude, love the fact that "during" the mall was lit up and after it went dark. Great!

Terrific! My wife and I watched the chalk artist create the image, yesterday afternoon.

Who gives a shit about Earth Hour? They trying to call attention for something less important than is happening ...
But the 7 reasons were the best on the shot! The guy is good!!

Fantastic idea. You've impressed me once again. Interesting how the large building doesn't appear to have participated - or as 'd' stated, they've gone backwards.

i'd be great to see them beside each other. It would make it easier to see the differences, rather then scrolling up and down.

Great pictures though!

While the photos are great, it seems like a pretty half-assed effort on the whole idea of Earth Hour. Had you not included the "after" shot I wouldn't have known that any lights were actually off in the "during" shot.
Guess I can't complain since I didn't do anything. Didn't even know about Earth Hour (not really publicized here in Australia).

What's number 7?

I like those phantom passers-by, and the witty reasons to make a donation to Chalkmaster. :)

Hey Sam,
Great shots!

Pleasure meeting you this afternoon.
Cheers

I turned on all the lights in my house during Earth Hour.

Real change requires a real effort, not a symbolic gesture with people sitting in the dark blogging and updating their Facebook about how they're saving the environment. Hypocrisy, much?

Posted by Glenn at March 29, 2009 09:51 PM

Can anyone tell me the last 2 reasons to donate to the chalkmaster? :)
