Question A nice little earner - or con???
I picked up a reference to filmearth from a travel site. I have registered with the site and had a look at the rules. Initial thoughts are that it seems legit, they are asking for detailed shots of specific buildings in various locations around the world. They also seem to want up to 25 shots of each building from various viewpoints so that they can they create 3D images from your photos.

The only UK building they are currently looking for is the Harwich International Ferry Terminal

Anybody else here had any dealings with this outfit?
