Birmingham Cyclist

Cycling in and around Birmingham England

Here's a list of blue plaques in Birmingham, for which open-licensed photographs are being sought, by the Open Plaques project:

 

http://openplaques.org/places/gb/areas/birmingham/unphotographed

 

which produces open data on blue plaques.

 

If you can help by taking and uploading such pictures, to Flickr or Wikimedia Commons (let me know if you need help), or locating any that are already available, then they can be used by that project, on Wikipedia, and by anyone else with a mind to.

Here's two in Moseley for a start - http://www.flickr.com/photos/birminghamcyclist/sets/721576269543577... . Will you add them to that site or should I?

It would make a good excuse for a ride to get as many as possible. There are loads around Edgbaston which is great for Summer evening riding. I will let you know if/when I take more.
I've just checked and there are 4 others on my route(s) to work. I could start guided tours :-)
Thank you. You have them as "All Rights Reserved", so first please change them to a Creative Commons licence, we recommend CC-BY. Also, don't forget to add them to the 'Blue Plaques Birmingham' Flickr group: http://www.flickr.com/groups/blue-plaques-birmingham/

Those are great; thank you.
I retook them in the dry plus three new ones on the way home. Will upload all later tonight.
