The Illuminated Crowd

Posted on May 25, 2008 by Chuck Welch

They also cleverly use photos from Flickr users to illustrate their maps. They chose this one of mine for La Foule Illuminee (The Illuminated Crowd) in downtown Montreal.

Hyperlocal writer in a global market.
Views reality through the
cracked glasses of experience
in the dim light of a catholic education.
