As alwys, the Big Picture has an amazing, amazing installment, and as usual, there are serious implications here. One of my very favorite blogs.

  1. Agreed. There is something about the power of those large photographs that communicates so much better than words.

    It's interesting (and sad) to see how quickly a town can change when there's a lure of striking it rich. It will be even sadder once the sapphires run low and many people leave, creating a ghost town.

  2. The photographs really take you in on this sapphires adventure. John i will submit to john's rss feed.
