Life in Stunning Colour

I just stumbled across a web site that is full of wonderful photo essays on all kinds of subjects. The site is named "The Big Picture: News Stories in Photographs". I didn't see all that much "news". Instead, I see this as a wonderful gallery of artistic photographs that are outside the tyranny of the art academicians.

Examples of what they are "currently showing"...

• Photos from Afghanistan of ISAF troops out in the field. Stunning pictures.
• Scenic nature photography from around the world.
• Gorgeous pictures of the Sun.
• The harsh life of the poor working an open pit sapphire mine in Madagascar

The site is well worth a visit. I've stuck it into my Google Reader so that I'll be notified when new photo essays become available.
