Photo of the Day (1.30.09)

This panoramic shot (click to enlarge) was submitted by flickr user JRodmanJr, who writes that it was taken at dusk in the Alexander Valley wine region of Northern California. I love the long-shadow, end-of-day feeling that the photo provides, as well the suspicion that the photographer probably had a tall glass of wine to close out the afternoon. Is there a better way?

Buck Forester is a long-time photo contributor to Gadling’s Flickr group. Buck discovered a rock that was lit from behind by the sun setting behind a rock. With an exposure of 1/4 sec, he captured the explosion of water at Rodeo Beach in California at precisely the right moment.

Nice job, Buck. Hope we see some new pics from you soon.

Macbeth’s woods where the witches toil? No, flicts captured a shot of these woods in Portugal. The hues and shadows are wonderfully alluring–ink black and almost neon blue. What is out there? What is out there? Shhhhhh. Listen.

If you have an alluring shot to show off, send it our way at Gadling’s Flickr photo pool. It may show up as a Photo of the Day.

The good news is that work sent me to Seattle early this week for some conversations with Boeing and Blue Origin. The bad news is that it’s freezing here. Still, the city is striking and beautiful, and as I pull through highway 99 on the way back from Renton I see the skyline and am reminded of why I love this city so much.

Our very own Kent Wien, who turns 40 today, took this HDR image of downtown Seattle. Hopefuly he wasn’t flying a commerical airplane at the time of the shot!

Photo of the Day (1.25.09)

I love the atmosphere created by Flickr user Bernard-SD’s photo of New York’s Trinity Cemetery. After recently featuring Trinity in a post on New York City cemeteries, it’s interesting to see it from Bernard’s perspective. The barren trees, snow covered ground and crooked tombstones all come together to give this shot quite the haunted feeling.

Have any great travel photos you’ve taken recently? Why not add them to the Gadling pool on Flickr? We might just pick one of yours as our Photo of the Day.
