The Big Picture – news and current events photo archive

The Big Picture, part of the Boston Globe online, is a massive archive of browsable and downloadable news photos.  The up-to-the-minute images are organized by month and by categories such as Middle East, Religion, Daily Life, Disasters, etc.  Each topic includes several photos, and in some cases (such as the post-Hurricane Ike group under “Disasters”) there are before and after photos which transform with a click.
