Today’s Photo of the Day comes from photographer bennyjewell, who took this photo in a forest just north of Stockholm, Sweden. The photo is titled “Imagine living here” – and that’s exactly what I like about this photo – it begs the imagination to create a story about this lone hut tucked away in the Swedish woods.

Sometimes what makes a photo isn’t the subject or the composition, but the treatment of the image — the processing — after the photographer captures the images. And this lovely vintage treatment of the Hotel de Ville in Brussels by photographer Malou Arevalo is a great example — the result is a completely timeless shot. Beautiful work.
If you’ve got some great travel shots you’d love to share, be sure to upload them to the Gadling pool on Flickr. We might just pick one as our Photo of the Day.
The Gateway Arch in Saint Louis is truly one of our nation’s most underrated landmarks. This magnificent milestone towers like a futuristic giant over the Saint Louis skyline, providing an iconic point of reference anywhere you happen to be in this historic Midwestern city. Flickr user SenzEnina snapped today’s great shot of this famous structure, framing it perfectly with the city’s Old Courthouse building.

Puffins always amaze me. They appear so exotic and tropical, yet they reside in such frigid places as Iceland, Russia and Greenland. This little guy posed for Fiickr user The.Rohit in the tiny Icelandic village of Borgarfjörður Eystr (attempts to pronounce that name by those not skilled in Icelandic may result in tongue injuries). The photo shows off the diversity of Iceland, which, despite its name, is home to these gorgeous birds and some absolutely fantastic Spring and Summer weather.
What the photo does not convey is how wonderfully delicious puffins can be. They eat them in Iceland. I know this firsthand. Did I just ruin this picture for you?

Today’s shot, from Flickr user epicxero, was taken (you guessed it) at the magnificent ruins of Machu Picchu in Peru. Located about 50 miles from the town of Cusco, Machu Picchu is certainly at the top of my list of places to visit before I die. Sure, a lot of tourists go there, but looking at this photo, can you blame them?
