Time again for another installment of “really cool stuff I found on the web”.

I Was fortunate recently to stumble across a link to Bill Newsinger’s Vimeo site, which is loaded with amazing photographic works. Time-lapse, day-in-the-life, still-life, you name it. Bill apparently does a lot of his own music as well, which is doubly impressive to me when people have the talent to make that work. Much easier said than done, even if you have an ear for music.

Two of his “compositions” that impressed me most (and I’ve only watched about 5 of over 170 titles) are below. Hope you enjoy them as much as I have. A real thank you to Bill and others like him. It’s art like this that inspires us get out from behind our LCDs and go photograph stuff more, worry about technology and gear less!

There’s been a lot of discoveries in the world of astronomy and astro-phyisics lately, so it seems like a good idea to post some amazing photographs from my absolute favorite camera platform… the Hubble Space Telescope. NPR’s Picture Show is on a roll… or… has a good search function and lots of cool stuff to look at (take your pick!). I’ve also posted another of my favorites from the Vimeo Staff Picks “library”. You could seriously spend a whole day looking at that stuff if you’re not careful; amazing work.

Thanks for dropping by and be sure to tell your friends and/or follow me @Colortrails if you like this stuff. Personally I think it’s pretty hard not to like it; that’s why I post it. :) Cheers!

Two photographic works stand out today as ones that are definitely worth sharing.

One is a follow-up on yesterday’s “remembering Katrina” expose from NPR, and another is a video montage of sorts that I stumbled on from Trey Ratcliff’, author of the Stuck in Customs photography blog. Both of these works take a thoughtful approach to their subjects and really illustrate when an artist cares about their subject / is deeply into it, the results are usually compelling. I especially thought the editing of Trey’s video piece was excellent, varying the speed at which subjects are experienced (and remembered) just as in life. Enjoy. -Dan

Today I’m starting a new habit and it’s one I’m enjoying already; I hope you’ll find benefit from it as well. One of the great things about Twitter is that you are exposed (in the professional art community) to all kinds of amazing work that people do. So as often as I can during the week, I plan to round up two or three blog postings, videos or other links that that really had a strong impact on me, and provide you with a glimpse of the same. Follow me @Colortrails and let me know what you think! Thanks for dropping by. -Dan
