If you’re not already up on it, The Boston Globe has a rather amazing section of their website called the “Big Picture.” Rather than presenting news as long-winded (read: my writing style) features, The Globe instead posts large, incredibly-vivid images with tight, to-the-point captions. Sometimes a picture says a thousand words; certainly, in most cases, we’d rather look at picture than read a thousand words.

The Big Picture’s team has also just published their beautiful annual feature: The Year in Photographs. 2008′s edition is a three-part feature. Please take a look (Part 1 | Part 2 |Part 3)
More selects from the Big Picture after the jump.
