Links, Links, Links (and a legend)

First, R.I.P. Bo Diddley. He was truly a rock and roll legend. He had one of the most distinctive guitars ever built, and contributed one of the great rock riffs of all time. How many songs out there use the Bo Diddley beat? Too many to count. That's how influential he was.

Here are some great links I've found lately on Stumbleupon:

  • Check out this collection of 30 inspiring photos. There are some interesting ideas here. The photographers play with focus, composition, lighting, and more. Some of the photos were the result of great timing. I'm sure there is something here for everyone.
  • Exposure - afterword by Mary Ellen Mark. This is incredible. Photographer Mary Ellen Mark not only shows some of the great photos she has taken, but tells the stories behind them. I always enjoy hearing stories about images. Stories make you appreciate the photos even more.
I'll try to find more great links to share. I've been slacking off on that!
