Anyone hear of this?

My question is - Has anyone been approached like this before. My concern is that this guy is requesting that I send a high resolution photo for consideration to be voted on...doesn't that sound odd, or is that a common practice? I am debating on whether to reply to this guy and asking more questions (like $$$) or wondering if it is a scam and just forgetting about it. Does anyone have an opinion?

Hello, My name is Gregory Banks. The Talking Phone Book is looking for new cover
photo ideas for our Jacksonville Beach Phone Book. I was wondering if you would
be
willing to submit this photo or any other high resolution photos (300 dpi) of
landmarks, landscapes, festivals, etc highlighting the area that we could use
for our cover. We will be collecting a couple photos and then voting on them.
Thank you very much and I look forward to hearing from you.
