Calling All New Years Project Websites

Many of us have been talking of doing photo projects for the new year. For example, I will be doing a Photo 365 Project called No Words.

The Industrial Photography of David Clark

David Clark has been lingering around the SP@Flickr Group almost since its inception.  You may even remember him from our review of his photo, Summer Chair.
