| description | Photo Albums: collect iconic albums from the world's best photographers and build themed albums from your own library. Browse, search, daily discovery, research-seeded external albums, curated personal collections. |
Photo Albums is a first-class Cortex citizen alongside books and movies. Each album is a photo-album entity with its own wiki page at entities/album-<slug>.md. Two kinds:
- External — iconic monographs from the world's great photographers (e.g., Henri Cartier-Bresson's The Decisive Moment, Fan Ho's Hong Kong Yesterday). Seeded via web research.
- Personal — themed collections curated from the user's own photo library (e.g., "Hong Kong Street 2025", "Mountain Portraits").
