Photography

Civil engineering student shows a variety of structures out of pennies - just pennies - held together by nothing more than gravity and friction, built by himself and others who sent in their pictures.

Don't get too excited, just yet. These are just photos of beautiful libraries' interiors, not beautiful librarians' exteriors. Sorry.

Photoessay. How the army corp of engineers hid an aircraft factory during World War Two.

I like a lot of the photography (done in black and white in locations around the world), but wasn't pleased with the presentation - all of the photos on one page, without commentary or even something other than a plain white photo, and practically no spaces between the photos, which appear in a long stack. Some of this is nice work, and deserves to be savored, not gulped down like one in a stack of potato chips, which is what the presentation is encouraging when part of the next image is always onscreen.

Stream of consciousness journal in which the author takes uise through his day and what he saw. One has the photo stacking issue one saw on a previous bookmark so, visually, the individual shots aren't immediately seen to their best advantage, but Koller allow the Blogger default option to do its work and link the images on his blog to the larger scale versions in storage, and there is a connection between the images, so we gain something at the same moment we lose something else. Reliably beautiful work, as far as the subject matter will allow, but don't try visiting this blog without broadband. The density of images on the page will create major downloading issues.

Splashes frozen in time, becoming crystal sculptures.

Nature's hidden passages. Guide to finding these places. Attractive photography of places that sound like they'd be a challenge to visit. Be sure to read the guide carefully before you go, to know what you're getting yourself in for.

Images enhanced by the presence of reflecting surfaces in them - water, usually; mirror surfaces in a few, the Bean ("Cloud Gate") in Chicago making an appearance in one of the shots. In some, the orientation of the camera is changed to briefly create a confusion between object and reflection, with pleasantly surreal results.

More stop action pictures of fluid in motion. These are a little more delicately and less dramatically done than the last batch, with more exploration of color

Pictures of a medieval fortified city in France, presented without commentary.

No caves in sight, but some nice church architecture.

Instructional page, nice shots of fireworks, and an annoying popup inviting one to subscribe.

Nice pictures of a very simple but much beloved piece of public art. WARNING: You might want to skip the comments section following the blog post - a few trolls dropped by, and ugliness followed.
