Photography by: Dylan Jon Wade Cox
I started this project a few weeks ago on my own. I raised few dollars to begin with and then that quickly ran out for gas money in my Jeep. I
plan on going down to Lake Okeechobee next and Sanibel Island. I have been to multiple locations on the Gulf Coast tracking the red tide but it doesn't seem to be slowing down. I have been invited to document multiple protest and rallies. Any bit of $ helps for gas money and trips. I would also like to get a real mask instead of a bandana. I have already
spent 20+ hours documenting the red tide in my boots on foot and first hand. I have spoken with over 50+ people out on the streets who are out there next to me. Photo journalism is one of the only ways I know I can help. I am able to stomach the terrible smell and keep on trucking. I hope to get some boat rides out into the thick of it. $500 is where I am starting. It would be great to get more but this will at least keep the Jeep rolling. SAVE OUR SEAS! PLEASE DONATE SO I CAN GO AND KEEP ON DOCUMENTING ALL OF THIS TRAGEDY THAT I CAN.
Photos of the effects of red tide along the gulf coast of Florida. My goal is to document as much of the devastation as possible. Take a trip with me behind me lens to these different locations where red tide as left its mark. Let us be a voice to fight back against big sugar and take back our environment. <3 Please share this album.
Thousands of dead fish, dead sharks, dead sting rays, dead turtles, dead dolphins, dead manatees deserted beaches, empty restaurants, empty businesses, people swimming, and people trying to go about their daily lives all captured with photographs.
*** I UPDATED THE CAMPAIGN AND RAISED THE PRICE TO $750. ON 8.16.18 MY CAMERA ROLLED IN MY CAR AND BROKE THE LCD SCREEN ON MY NIKON D500. IT WILL COST -$250 TO REPAIR THE LCD. I WILL DO IT ANYWAYS BUT ONCE AGAIN ANYTHING HELPS. I HAVE 2 BACK UP CAMERAS SO DON'T WORRY, I WON'T BE STOPPING. ***
