I like that conceit in the abstract, but I don't think this site even passes that. Does is display a significant talent in that there are many pictures from many sources with all the same theme?

Doesn't this site just display an ascetically interesting element that is easily replicable.

That isn't to say it isn't nice to look at, but is it more than that from the perspective of HN? How does this differ from any other artistic tumbler blog.

(This is not meant as a dig against the creator of this site. Only a question of this sites relevance in regard to HN. After all it is friday, maybe I should just get over it...)

I followed the link, looked at the site, enjoyed the images, then came back here and flagged the story.

Just because I find the site interesting doesn't mean it belongs here.

I enjoyed it so I upvoted it. I don't just come to HN for news about startups. The occasional off-topic but interesting site is nice to see.
