If you love great pho­tog­ra­phy — images like they used to print in Life Mag­a­zine of old and National Geo­graphic — you will adore The Big Pic­ture.

The Big Pic­ture is a photo blog cre­ated by by Alan Tay­lor for The Boston Globe/boston.com. It’s an always-reliable source for high qual­ity, amaz­ing imagery, with a focus on cur­rent events, lesser-known sto­ries and “just about any­thing that comes across the wire that looks really interesting”.

In the past, beau­ti­ful pho­tog­ra­phy was con­sid­ered a poor fit on mobile, and in fact even the best mobile web browsers don’t do these pho­tos justice.

But Kinoma Play makes it so effort­less to zoom in, pan around and “fly though” the amaz­ing detail in these pho­tos that they retain a pow­er­ful emo­tional punch even on devices with smaller screens.
