More "Best Of"

The New York Times didn't have their "Year in Pictures" site up yet over the weekend when I compiled all the links in my previous post, so I'm adding it here now.

The photos are just outstanding.

But what's even more extraordinary is the newspaper offers up such a marvelous, interesting, entertaining, enlightening and unique view of our world - all produced by staff photographers and freelancers working on assignment.

That is especially impressive these days when any newspaper, magazine, or website can fill themselves entirely with all the exact same photographs as every other newspaper, magazine or website. It makes you appreciate what exclusive content really means.
