The response for the first round of best photo blogs was almost overwhelming. Thank you to all of you who voted for your favourite blog. This will help me immensely to be able to at the end put together a page with a handful of excellent photo blogs.
One comment in the first round pointed out that it’s not necessary to make a competition for the best blog. They are all in themselves best. She also pointed out that in the end a vote is only based on a subjective reaction – and I do agree with her sentiment. But this process I have started is not really a competition, but a way to narrow down around 500 suggestions to a manageable amount that is possible to display on a web page. So please keep helping me by voting for what you think are the best photo blogs. If enough put in a vote I believe we will end up with a representative selection.
In the first round two blogs quickly appeared to gather the most and almost equal amounts of votes. For many of us it’s hard to pick the few blogs to which we want to give our votes, but again it’s very helpful in narrowing down the amount of blogs. So please put in your votes in this round too. Like in the first round you are allowed to give up to three votes.
Here is this round’s blogs:
Istanbul
Images and Journeys of a Searching Mind
Echwalu Photography
Photosteam
Fatman Photos
Killing Time with a Camera
The Background Story
Andy Beel FRPS
Focused Moments
Dan Jurak’s Lanscape Photo Blog

Thanks for putting in your vote!
Another great post…and the whole list is new to me. Such talent out there, it is inspiring as it is amazing.
I am glad you find the list interesting.
Non è facile scegliere, però ci provo.
Ciao, Pat
So che non è facile, ma vi ringrazio per averci provato, Pat.
Another fine collection Otto, all very good and two which are outstanding.
Thanks for the feedback, David!
It demands time! ?Going through dozens of posts from each blog to see if it clicks for me, although some of the devoted technical ones, or the compilers were right out after 3-4 posts. I don’t mind talking about photography, but technical data are only interesting to me when in need to buy a new camera or lens, while the compilers, although they do a splendid job sometimes, are a pass time mostly.
I know. It does take time. And I agree with you when it comes to more technical blogs.

It took some time to visit all of them and take a thorough look …but now I’m through. 🙂 Interesting to see the various presentations, themes and main objects of interest. Some very nice ones this time too, Otto. Still my favourite so far was amongst the first ones in round one.:-)
Have a great weekend.
Love, Dina

Great that you like it!
yeah sometimes its hard to find new photographers and/or fresh work that can inspire.
This is hard! LOL! There are some wonderful talents out there…I voted for my favorite, though. And I’m glad to be introduced to so many creative photographers! 🙂
And you should vote for you favourites. Thank you for taking your time, Debra.
This is great, Otto 🙂
🙂
This is much harder than I thought it would be. I can see where you were having a problem narrowing down 500. I am having trouble picking only 3 from 15.
Nevertheless I appreciate you help in narrowing down the numbers.
I wanted to add my thumbs up to this idea. It’s great to see what others have done. It is a real source of inspiration to me, and it reminds me to try a bit harder in my photography. Thanks, Otto.
And thank you for the positive feedback, Phil!
Thanks, I continue to be astonished by the talent and even with your stellar lists, there are many more that are not shown. Of course, the number of blogs and sites are so vast that it amazes me we can discover each other.
For me that was one reason to create this list of blogs – simply to get to know more excellent blogs. Thank you, Sally.
And you achieved that for all of us in “our” community.
So So many great blogs you have featured to vote on. All are so fine work.
So happy you stopped by blogger. Thank you for your compliment and comment.
Thanks for taking your time with my blog, too. Have a great week!
I love the diversity of photography represented here. Many blogs I’ve never visited before with some outstanding work! There are not enough hours in the day…
I know it’s hard to have the time to appreciative all the goods blogs out there. Thanking for taking your time.
There are some wonderful blogs here, Otto. Your project offers us all a glimpse at blogs that we’d not see otherwise. Great idea!
I am glad you like the idea of collecting good photo blogs. Thank you, George!
so many good ones here…tough to choose. great work, Otto.
I know it’s tough to choose. But thank you for helping out.
