Photo of the Day (5/30/2006)

by Erik Olsen on May 30, 2006


This photo made me do a double take when I came across it on the Gadling Flickr site. The incongruity of a surfboard and a Kalashnikov was just too much for my coffee-deprived mind to absorb this morning. But it is the real deal, and was taken by our good friend localsurfer. He says the shot was taken in Yemen, where “gun’s are a way of life”. Gnarly, dude.
