Curated photo collections made from other users images

As anywhere in any image thread you'll get 10 images from which every user probably will only really like 1. So the perception is that real good images get buried under heaps of crappy (subjective) images.

I do not know if it was technically and legally possible to create a feature which allows a user to make a collection of images (made by other users or by the users themselves) selectively. Just to display a collection of pure photos. No text. Maybe just the option to "like" certain images.
Based on images uploaded here anyhow.

For example the User "Alex" could create "Alex' curated collection of birds in flight images".
Similar to Pinterest or the collection feature in 500px.

I would assume a good curated collection would collect a lot of page views.

That's a pretty cool idea- I'd just use a simple thread as a starting point, and be sure to credit the original post when including each photo. Might also be a good idea to reach out to individual users.

As for image discovery, the gallery view for each main photo sharing forum should do the trick:
