Photo of the Day (07.12.08)

After a lot of red, white and blue painted faces last weekend it’s refreshing to see the bright colors from the other side of the Pacific. Ultraclay! managed to get a very close-up shot of this decorated Harajuku girl in Japan. The most intense part of this picture are her eyes; she must be wearing special contacts. Makes me wonder if she did her make-up for a special occasion or just an afternoon out on the town?

Want your up-close shot featured on Photo of the Day? Submit it to the Gadling flickr pool and it just might be selected.

Here’s a photo from Minuano12 that just might inspire those who are suffering in the sweltering heat this July to take a dip. It cools me off just looking at it. The shot, titled Caida con burbujas was apparently taken in Spain just two days ago.

Nice job, Minuano12!

Straight out of Fashion Week! The only difference is that this couple looks so much better than Posh Spice in all her cheesy zebra-print outfits.

AngeAngerson took this photo in a game park in Nairobi, Kenya in 2006.

Seriously, how cute is the baby zebra??

Photo of the Day (07.06.08)

Flickr user wesleyrosenblum has decided to let us in on a secret – Lisbon is one of the most picturesque cities on earth. This photo looks like it was taken from atop the hill that’s occupied by Lisbon’s Castelo São Jorge, the magnificent castle that guards this ancient port city.

I like the way the cannon “pokes” out into the middle of this view, looming over the city below. I also like the way the field of view is split neatly in half, with little puffy clouds floating above and ancient terra-cotta-roofed buildings laying underneath.

Have any photos of a panoramic view in Portugal? Or maybe just a picturesque shot from Portland, Oregon? Add it to our Gadling photo pool on Flickr and it could end up as our Photo of the Day.
