(Entertainment-NewsWire.com, August 26, 2015 ) Los Angeles, California -- Alex Scott's KickStarter campaign is off to a great start reaching 25% of the goal in the first week. Not only are family and friends excited for the campaign to succeed, people are pledging from all over North America and as far away as Australia, Italy, Switzerland and the UK.
Comments on the campaign site express the excitement donators have for the project and what it means to them.
"There's compelling beauty in the structure of a great city. It is sometimes hard to see under all the motion, noise and activity. Alex has brought it to the surface and exposed it for us."
"Alex, you did great work here. What a way to expose the nature of infrastructure at rest. And the lighting of a city when it is sleeping. I look forward to your book being published and sent to millions of people."
"Dear Alex, your book speaks by itself. You have captured so many faces of LA, you have open our eyes to the poetry and beauty of our city. This is very precious. Thank you."
The likes and shares from Scott's FaceBook page are mounting, showing more of the enthusiasm for the project.
"Check out my friend Alex Scott's KickStarter!!! He is beyond amazing and talented. I went out with him once on one of his nighttime adventures, and he really will do anything to get the shot that he wants."
"The moment I saw this project from, Alex Scott, I knew I wanted to be a part of it... support him and share with all my friends. His work is exciting and extraordinary. Please help support this beautiful work he's creating. Any amount will be awesome."

"My workshop student, Alex Scott has been doing this crazy project of photographing empty highways in LA for the last two years. Anyone who has seen a highway in LA will know how almost impossible it is to find a moment where it is empty. The result is very extraordinary, so have a look at his fun and interesting Kickstarter video here and consider supporting the project to get your own signed copy of the book." Thorsten von Overgaard
