Image via Des Moines Register

Members of the local non-profit Urban Ambassadors organized the event, dubbed “Shoot Your Commute,” because of the image’s ability to convey the benefits of alternative transportation. They believe a localized version would be more meaningful to residents of Greater Des Moines.

Des Moines-based photographer Tobin Bennett will shoot the localized version on East Locust with the state Capitol building framed in the background.

The public is welcome to attend the photo shoot from 2 – 4 p.m. Sunday on East Locust between East Fourth Street and East Sixth Street. Traffic on those blocks will be blocked during that time.

Those interested in volunteering for the photo shoot can call 515-491-0706, e-mail adamhammes@gmail.com or sign up on Facebook.
