The Big Picture
Andy Bellow interviews Alan Taylor, the fellow behind what’s being hailed as the best new blog of the year, The Big Picture, {take a look} the journalistic photo blog that’s taken the web by storm. For the uninformed, the idea’s simple, but extremely effective. “Spend a few minutes with the Iowa floods, the faces of Sudan, or the daily life in Sadr City, and you feel like you’ve opened a window to another world.”
Internally, externally, everywhere, people are being really thankful to me. I need to make sure (with some link-love in my upcoming blogroll) that the response gets directed to the photographers as well. I’m just a web developer with access to their photos and a blog – they’re the ones out there working hard to get these amazing images. “Photographers” here is a loose term, encompassing photojournalists, stringers, amateurs, scientific imaging teams and more.
