Photo Galleries

The first website I found is not typical photo gallery, and to be honest, I’m not sure if it would be considered a gallery at all.  It showcases the work of a professional digital retoucher named Greg Apodaca.  I thought it was really interesting how much the untouched pictures differed from the retouched pictures.  Greg is not responsible for the photography, just the retouching, but I thought it was a really interesting profession.

This next one is hilarious.  It is a take off on Yahoo! and is called Yooha!  The homepage actually looks identical to the Yahoo! homepage.  The photos in this section all make fun of our commander in chief, Dub-ya.  The pictures compliment a hilarious set of captions.

Lastly, this photo gallery, by David Mailetti, contains pictures from Mardi Gras 2006.  The pictures are just amazing.  New Orleans is far from baing back to normal, its still pretty ravaged, actually.  The spirit to rise and celebrate in a traditional way, even in the midst of despair is captivating.
