• Shadowtones.net 9/29/06 
  Description: analog photography by Oxana Diakonashvili
  Comments: Today's pick showcases the works of "an amateur photographer living in St. Petersburg, Russia" who shoots only with film. Extraordinary black & white photos! And a links page too...;~))
   
• Blueeyes Magazine 9/23/06 
  Description: devoted to excellence in documentary photography from around the world
  Comments: Saying it "exists to give a home to projects that examine social, political, and environmental issues around the world" and that it's "a movement against negative trends in photojournalism," the magazine tries to "champion unpublished and unheralded work from mainly younger photographers." Online since 2003 with some amazing documentary photography in the archives – nice site design too...
   
• Photoblog.hu 9/21/06 
  Description: a visual diary from Hungary by Ervin Sperla
  Comments: Been holding this pick in my back pocket for too long now. Ervin calls the site "a nifty way to justify always having my camera with me and foist the results on the unsuspecting public." That's a good thing 'cause his photos from home in Budapest are wonderful. And he's traveled the world too...;~))
   
• oh you! 9/19/06 
  Description: website of a 22-year-old designer living in Sydney
  Comments: What personality! Seems her new site layout just landed her a new job and reading her upbeat post about it left me happy for a total stranger.

  I have a job I love, I work with people I dig, I have a cool boss, I have a boyfriend with a belly button that my index fingers have access to 80% of the time and, I have a company email address! All is good in my world!

  The site's been online for 3 years and there's a lot more amusing content besides that most recent post. "I saw the light today. When I finally put my hoodie on the right way." Heehee... 
   
• mi babilonia 9/18/06 
  Description: a site about myself (Flash)
  Comments: "About death, love, pain, space and distance." There's no excuses as Indira shares her works from 2004. Taken back by an interactive piece called pAnic. "The soft shivering of being left alone..." 
   
• SeeMusic Project 9/17/06 
  Description: an unusual and imaginative way of visualising music (Flash)
  Comments: The project attempts to explain "the history of western classical music since ancient Greece through symbol and colour." Each visualisation is based "in the colour theory and ideas" of the historical period in which the musical work originated. You'll need Flash, a broadband connection, and some patience to enjoy the visualisations (and music), but it's all quite interesting, including the in-depth Theory section.
   
• Finlandia 9/16/06 
  Description: handmade photography - images from the north
  Comments: A chilling selfportrait led me to Zei Andrei Meriae's handmade photography. Beautiful Finnish landscapes and portraits. And a not-so-pretty, but thought-provoking hog...;~))
   
• i am a camera 9/15/06 
  Description: visual diary and scrapbook
  Comments: "It is a collection of images that point to things I do, see and find interesting." An image like this, one of Daniel's selected shots, tells me passion powers his creativity... 
   
• Urban Landscapes 9/8/06 
  Description: intended to feature the best in photography and critical writing on the urban landscape from around the world
  Comments: "The enduring power of photography lies in the acceptance of its images as credible documentary records with enduring archival validity." Mike Seaborne, on of the site's creators, says the challenge is to capture not only the "physical manifestations" of continuous changes to the urban landscape, but to also "make visible the underlying social and cultural forces which ultimately determine their form and meaning." There's currently 7 different photographers featured – some great visual and textual content here... 
   
• Binary Bonsai 9/6/06 
  Description: a weblog run by the earthling Michael Heilemann
  Comments: "Half humans, half things." He started the site back in 2001 with something different in mind but "somewhere along the line it took a wrong turn..." It's been Michael Heilemann's "fully fledged blog" since 2003 (you might recognize the name from his well-known WordPress theme). If you're into games and/or movies, you'll especially enjoy the content here. There's occasional photos and podcasts too. Some cool design touches including a bit of AJAX...
