Photo of the Day (08.16.08)


If you’ve ever crossed a rope bridge, you will appreciate this photo; just looking at it makes me a little nervous. Madang86 chose an excellent angle to capture this shot of women crossing the Hunza River in Pakistan.

Today’s photo of the day comes from Flickr user fiznatty who shot this in Yorkshire, in the U.K. I love how the sun lights up the landscape while the sky above begins to turn dark. Throw in a single tree and a house and you have a piece of art.

Way to go fiznatty for capturing a moment that most people would have rushed past.

The flower section at Pike Place Market in Seattle is almost reason enough to go there. Gorgeous, lush, spectacular, stupendous–these words don’t come close. Theodore Scott’s shot brought me back to my own experience here last summer.

Last summer, when I picked up a bunch, I was surprised at how inexpensive they are. If you go to the market, leave yourself enough time for wandering. The bounty of other goods is endless. Pike Place Market is a visual and olfactory feast like no others.

If you have your own shot to share, send it our way at Gadling’s Flickr photo pool to be considered for a Photo of the Day.

Istanbul’s Blue Mosque — one of my favorite places in the world in one of my favorite cities in the world. Walking into The Sultan Ahmed Mosque is one of those jaw dropping experiences that you remember for the rest of your life, its vaulted ceilings and Ottoman and Christian influences gently meeting far above the silent crowd. Today’s photo of the day comes from smallscreen, who does an excellent job capturing the detail of the central and satellite domes. A truly exceptional shot.
