Top 25 Industries

The Business Examiner is highlighting business activity or commerce by its industry employment levels in the South Sound during 2008.

We hope to shutter and click through the top 25 industries sequentially in each edition of 2008 and then pull all these images together in a single collection at the end of the year. The idea is to illustrate the breathe and depth of our South Sound economy.

We want to highlight not only that talent, but the diversity of businesses within our community through this project, in which you can certainly participate.

You will get full credit as the creative photographer. So get out and get shooting.

* Images should be jpegs and be able to be sized to 10 by 14 inches at 200 dots per inch (dpi). In plain English, that equates to a six megapixel image at the camera's highest setting. That means about a two megabyte file.

* Please don't send images from your camera phone; those never work out.

It would be best to e-mail images one at a time to sdunkel@businessexaminer.com. Make sure to include photographer credit information and information about the business and industry photographed as well as a few sentences about who is in the photograph.

Let the shooting begin.
