I'm a huge fan of the New York Times' Lens Blog which is their photography blog. I was pleasantly surprised to see their current feature on the front page of NYTimes.com this afternoon. They asked high school students from across the country to document their communities and have published the results online here.
I'm just starting to go through the images, but the premise of the project reminded of the work done by photographer Wendy Ewald... I first discovered her through her work with kids in Appalachia (now that I'm reading a bit more about her, it looks like she worked with Appalshop...)
