Got vetted by CNN
 

I have been submitting pictures once in a while to CNN's iReport. Last night I submitted a video I took last Sunday and they contacted me this morning asking if they could use it for TV.

Naturally, I said yes. Not sure if that will happen or not, but this was the first item they thought worthy enough for vetting. They even asked if I can go get some more pics. Guess I will have to grab the Rebel and do it right instead of shooting from my bike as I go by. :1orglaugh

lets see the pic...

dude that fantastic..congratz...tunnel looks cool...they need to light it so you can see all of the work there...let us know if CNN tells you when you may be on

Rear turn signal was hanging by a thread. :error

I will go back there with my Rebel and external flash to do it right. Hopefully they notify me if/when they decide to televise. You can be sure I will bump this thread if they do. ;)

very cool

At least you used your real name... Great clip btw, good for you ;-)

how cool, congrats :)

Awesome you got a link too

That's cool man!

Least it's better than what I did last week - took the back plate off and forgot it's what held the damn rear taillight bar in place.

It stayed on with grease and dirt until a hard stop 30min into the ride :1orglaugh

:thumbsup:thumbsup

Well, he usually likes to ride behind me, but sometimes I force him to take the lead. I am glad I did, when I did this time. It never would have made it to Santa Barbara.

What do you mean "vetted" ?

iReport is a user-generated section of CNN.com. The stories in this section are not edited, fact-checked or screened before they are posted.

iReport stories that have a red "CNN iReport" stamp in the corner have been vetted and cleared. That means they've been selected and approved by a CNN producer to use on CNN, on air, or on any of CNN's platforms.

Since they asked if I had any stills of the mural, and all I had were a few taken with my p&s, from my bike, I went back today to get some higher quality pics with a better camera. Here are a few samples.

That was cool.

that's a cool blog you have going on Lloyd. :)

Thank you. It keeps me out of trouble.

and that's were they put it... under a freeway

No. It is an underpass, but not under a freeway.

You deserve it.

cool?


nothing cool about death pal, and nothing cool about putting your emblem on pictures from an overpass and getting credit for it on cnn

nobody gets it ???????? that's why we continue to send more young people to die overseas whey do I care, I'm totally insane now

good for you, find something else to believe in

Yes, I enjoyed the video, hence cool.

For the record, I do not watermark photos submitted to CNN.

my bad, got a little carried away like I gave a shit. it's hopeless
