Daniel Shea just updated his website with a new body of work titled Plume, a follow-up to his Removing Mountains series. The project of course calls to mind Mitch Epstein‘s American Power, but takes a more specific approach.

The Photography Post

The Photography Post is a new website that aims to deliver the most current discussions on the state of photography by featuring live feeds from various fine art, commercial and fashion photography websites/blogs.

Along with the nicely designed “Live Feeds” display (which updates regularly with the latest posts), visitors to the site can sign up for an account to keep track of their favorite feeds. It’s a great idea that has been implemented in other forms already but never with such a clean design or with such fine people on board.

In addition to the live feeds, Editors Rachel Hulin and Kate Steciw as well as Publisher Danielle Franca Swift will be contributing original content to the site’s own blog as well as their Museum of Online Photography Collections.

Lots to see, so get to it.
