[Leica] Crowdfunding for photographers.

[Richard Man]

fotofund.org? If you look at KickStarter/Indiegogo, most photo projects do
not succeed, mainly because most of them are in the vein of "pay my
vacation so I can show pretty pictures" and people see through that.

This is why I realistically use gofundme - which gets money even if the
goal is not met, and that I set my goal to be a goal of $400 - that is 100
sheets of film which will be a tremendous help in my project. Thanks to
some generous people, 2x+ times of that money has been donated, so now I
can concentrate more on the creative part of the project.
