The Big Picture!


I wanted to leave a link to an amazing blog in pictures! It's called The Big Picture (by Alan Taylor), which is published out of the Boston Globe... As Mr. Taylor describes, it's news stories in photographs... When you click on the link you'll see titles highlighted in blue... As you click on each title, it will take to you a set of photographs describing each individual story... These photos are absolutely breathtaking! I will warn you though, some can be very graphic and somewhat disturbing... The saying a picture speaks a thousand words couldn't be more true with this blog! I have always felt that pictures describe a story much better than any description in words... I have been a huge fan of the Big Picture since I saw it for the first time after coming back from chasing Hurricane Ike... As someone that saw the wrath of Hurricane Ike first hand, I thought these pictures told an accurate/true story! I highly recommend everyone checking it out! Enjoy...
