Jeff Gray: "Take a picture of something asymmetrical."

I sent an email to a bunch of friends, which read (in relevant part):

"On Saturday, March 3, from 12:00 pm to 6:00 pm Eastern Time, I'll be walking around New York City with my camera. What I need you to do is tell me what to take pictures of. How? Call me at 917.478.XXXX. Ask me where I am, and anything else you want to know about what's going on around me. Tell me to take a picture of something nearby. You can call me as many times as you like, and your instructions can be in any form, and can be based on what you'd like to see a picture of or what you'd like to force me to do in order to get the picture.

The only restrictions are that you can't ask me to do anything that will:

- get me arrested
- get me assaulted, injured or killed
- cost me a lot of money
- take more than 20 minutes"

These pictures were taken in response to the calls I received.
