Eye candy

Most of what I consume on the Internet is text, but I occasionally do take advantage of the fact that it is a very visual medium, and have a couple of sources of visual inspiration.  One is the blog of my friend Ilana-Davita, which has a picture with every blog post.  An avid cook, gardener, and traveler, she photographs her world and shares the results on her blog, participating in several online photo projects including Ruby Tuesday (photograph something red), Skywatch Friday, and a flower of the week (usually from her lush garden).  I highly recommend checking her out.

My other source of visual pleasure is Yehuda Halevi’s photography of Israel.  His website indicates that he photographs life cycle events, but in addition he keeps a photo blog (click in the lower right of the screen on his home page to view the photos) with a photo of the week which one can sign up to have appear weekly in one’s email inbox.  He travels the country from one end to the other and captures the astonishing beauty of the place in every season and every sort of light.  His photos are also for sale.

What are your sources for visual inspiration?
