Photo Of The Day: Framing The Louvre

It’s not easy to frame a scene perfectly for a photograph, especially at a popular spot full of tourists. But Flickr user Kumakulanui did it twice for today’s Photo of the Day. Taken at Paris‘ famed Louvre museum, he captures both the larger scene of people and architecture, as well as the close-up his travel companion is shooting on her camera. The result is a very clever double take, giving you two images for the price of one.

Photo of the day – put a tiger in your tank


Did today’s Photo of the Day make you look twice? The tiger you see in the car is not a real animal, but a stuffed tiger at a car show display taken by Flickr user justchuckfl. The car is a British-made 1965 Tiger with a tail peeking out of the gas tank from Esso, whose slogan was “put a tiger in your tank.” The tiger is pretty lifelike for a stuffed animal, though I’d think the real cat would sit in the front seat.

Seen anything in your travels that made you do a double take? Add your photos to the Gadling Flickr pool and we may choose one for a future Photo of the Day.
