That’s some good photo, dude
Check out the World Press Photo of the Year gallery - some amazing stuff in there - not just single shots but portfolios, too - so like a music album, you get context and development of themes that you don’t get with singles. Helps get the message across, adds interest and meaning.
The winning photo:
War, death and suffering seem to feature fairly prominently. Is it because it elicits stronger emotion from the viewer (or the judges of this contest) than photos of other stuff would? Is suffering and war particularly photogenic? Or is it just attracting the best photographers out there?

- Revolution over at EvokeONE
- Fascinating virtual art exhibition loosely based around the theme of revolution (there are many others including Fable, Calligraphy, Muse, etc) featuring digital design art, music and photography - really, really high quality stuff. Love the music too, unexpectedly! I'll be returning frequently to Evokeone.com if they can keep this up. del.icio.us Tags: design,art,photography,music...
- Urban Rot
- Depressing but amazing Urban Exploration in the Detroit School Book Depository, wonderfully written up by the explorer, "Dutch". Modern day archaeology has so much to teach us about our own world and recent failings; in this case, the awful management of an education system that repeatedly fails to deliver on its promises of offering people a way out of poverty. It's a form of alternative journalism. 'Citizen archaeology', anyone? Found via Marginal Revolution del.icio.us Tags: urban exploration,urbex,citizen media,politics...
