Few blogs, or media of any kind, have been as arresting as the Boston Globe’s The Big Picture. Alan Taylor’s blog tells captivating stories, post after post. Its big pictures offer windows into the small places we never see. 

His year-end retrospective is a masterwork, something to give yourself time to gaze at and think through. It’s hard to choose just one representative, but I’ll offer this photo of Maasai warriors in a bow-and-arrow battle with the Kalenjin tribe in Kenya:

Obviously, you should head over to the Big Picture to see this and the whole retrospective in all its mind-boggling glory.
