In the wake of the devastation of Hurricane Katrina, several photographers at Flickr are auctioning off prints. From the group's home page:
Donate a print of one of your images to be auctioned off to the highest bidder. All proceeds will be donated to the American Red Cross Emergency Relief Fund to assist those tragically affected by Hurricane Katrina.
If you would like to join this group to auction off your own print or to bid on a print please visit the Katrina Relief Auction.
