Getting your site known inside the field is a major priority for many photographers, hobbyists and professionals alike. Sharing experiences, the know-how, or just plainly sharing the results and deriving feedback is an objective for many of us who have our work available to the big plains of the web.
Brian Auer at Epic Edits Weblog endeavored in an interesting project: listing some of the new and old sites related to photography available online, just from feedback from his readers (ok, I’m also imagining that it was a good way to see how his readers interact with him).
From the 26th of April to the 2nd of May (one week’s time) he got the answers and posted them here.
For all of you out there slightly interested in photography, some of these sites are worth visiting.
Here is the list (of course, notice that words: irrational and light: delirious are also featured):

Thanks for posting the list! And you’re right that it was something of an experiment on my part to see how my readers would interact with me. I feel that I have a better understanding of where my readers are coming from and what they’re interested in. The experiment is still going as I track the sites that republish the list. So far, I’m very pleased with the outcome.

Good list!
I was planning to run a photography blog of my own work, but I just don’t have the time. I have a really nice domain for it too. Maybe some day.

@ Armen,
Thanks, but full credit should go to Brian… He was the one harvesting the sites…
A photoblog does not take that much time to keep. You do what you like (photography) and post once in a while something that you like and something that you hope your visitors like. Now, a blog dedicated to photography, with articles, that is a different story… But I bet that, from your own experience, you know all this
Thanks for dropping by…
