As the creators of this photo blog describe it:
The Big Picture is a photo blog for the Boston Globe/boston.com, entries are posted every Monday, Wednesday and Friday by Alan Taylor. Inspired by publications like Life Magazine (of old), National Geographic, and online experiences like MSNBC.com's Picture Stories galleries and Brian Storm's MediaStorm, The Big Picture is intended to highlight high-quality, amazing imagery - with a focus on current events, lesser-known stories and, well, just about anything that comes across the wire that looks really interesting.
Whether you are interested in a topic or not, these images are sure to engage you. If you find this site interesting, you may want to check out Life Magazine's newly designed web site, as well as the aforementioned Pictures Stories and MediaStorm sites.
