A few photo blogs I like to read

Figure I'd share this with the world.  Here are some of the photography related blogs I read on a daily basis (or just have in my RSS reader):
  • Watch Impress Digicam Watch.  All in Japanese.  Great for shots of the latest products, and more
  • A Photo Editor.  Intelligent, well-thought out posts and essays on the career of a photographer. Great source for hearing some ins and outs of the industry. 
  • DPReview.  No explanation needed, although nowadays I'm getting really sick of their nit-picky criticisms and cliched review keywords
  • PhotographyBlog.  Once again, just for product reviews.  However, I don't think these guys are photographers in any sense.  I read them simply because of my need for camera-porn
  • Shanghai Street Stories.  I really cannot stand this girls' photos.  If she's gonna shoot in black and white, use fucking film.  I don't need your corny compositions and post-produced with a sentimental filter.  But why do I still keep visiting it?  It's always interesting to know what people with worse taste than you enjoy.  
  • .one too many.  Frank Canepari's blog.  Sometimes I think this guy is a genius, sometimes I think he's full of shit.  But most geniuses are full of shit, so I give him a pass.  
  • Street Level Japan.  Just started following this blog.  Not quite sure what he's about, but the last few posts have featured a report on an Araki opening, a Herzog quote on images, and a half-hearted defense of Daido Moriyama.  Guess this guy is good in my book. 
  • Wired Raw Files.  Geeks with money who love photos of crazy shit.
