Cool Hunting
Days With My Father by Phil Toledano by Tim Yu
Cool Hunting favorite Phil Toledano recently released a photo essay titled Days With My Father. A touching compilation of photos taken after the death of Toledano's mother, the images give an intimate look at the father-son relationship and serve as a time capsule of the period. Although very simple and sparse, the series captures a spectrum of emotion.
Created by Fashionbuddha, the elegant design and functionality of the site compliments the work by allowing the photos to stand on their own and speak for themselves. I found it to be inspiring and at times heart-wrenching. Grab a tissue, visit Days With My Father and then go call your family.

Chris Hornbecker: 1 millimeter a day
Photographer Chris Hornbecker challenged himself with an interesting project last year. The idea was to take a brand new photo each day.

The photo below is at 387mm....

Twexus
Twexus is a database of over 20,000 digital photographs taken by Andreas Wacker. There are a couple different ways to search for photos, but my favorite is a feature called pairs. All it does is randomly select two photos to display side by side. More often than not, the juxtaposition is rather compelling....
