  1. Russia 1900-1915 in color photographs.  These are beautiful and teach a lot about history.

Sergey Mikhaylovich Prokudin-Gorsky was a pioneering Russian photographer. These photos were taken three in rapid succession with different filters, which then allowed a composite color photograph to be constructed.

2. The Band  this is a great fan site,  from Norway, though the site is in English.

3. Colorblindor This is an excellent site on color blindness with tests, resources, and essays.  Highly recommended.  Teachers, parents, graphic designers, as well as the color blind, will find it useful.
