Today we happened to wander across several great photographers by chance while strolling through our regular digital haunts. Though showcasing great photos is a bit of a change of pace for us, we still thought we’d share.

Proceed on for more work that caught our eye. Different tastes abound – so the collection’s quite eclectic. Click on any of the shots to view more of that great photographer’s work.

Needless to say we’re pretty happy to have been recently added to their growing list of Top Design Resources. Our hope is that many more designers of all stripes recognize Inkd as a valuable stock resource and an easy addition to their toolkit.

Studio 7 has something to offer most any designer as well, besides their great list of resources, as they are behind the launch of several new networks of sites, most notably something called Design Slurp, which is a nifty aggregator of design news and inspiration across several mediums.

Just found these today – Helveticons are extremely cool. Should you need icons for wire-framing, presentations, Web applications, buttons, promotional material, or something to put above your desk – Helveticons got you covered. Seven file formats of which six are in scalable vector format. The set contains a lot of different file format, such as .gs for Omnigraffle icons, and .chs for Photoshop shapes. All in all, this is a nice set of graphic design resources. Even if you dont actually use the icons, sometimes its great to have inspiration for common icons.
