Photo of the day (06/24/08)


I don’t think that many people think of roughing it through Tajikistan when they think of “road tripping it”. That’s exactly why I love this picture, taken by uncorneredmarket in Gadling’s photo pool. The perfect mixture of arid rough terrain, beautiful blue sky and a classic vehicle — thundering down the dirt roads of Central Asia towards adventure unknown.

Ha! The title of this photo is “Making friends with the locals.” Could not have said it better myself.
It was taken by RXX in Madrid.

Photo of the Day (06.22.08)

Flickr user mce323’s photos from Morocco are making me very nostalgic. It was around this time two years ago when I visited Marrakech myself, so I was excited to browse through the photos of his trip. This particular photo he took of a sign there happened to catch my eye.

It’s always fun to try and make sense of signs like this based purely on context and style. Is this advertising bike tours? Some sort of repair shop? If you speak Arabic, feel free to share below. In any case, the red bicycle in the middle looks almost cartoon-ish – as-if it was drawn by a child. I also particularly like the contrast between the blue letters, red bike and white background. Good work.

Wow. I don’t think I need to write that much about this shot by Hector G Lincz; it’s pretty much all around amazing. I especially love the contrast of the gray sky and the strong colors in the rainbow.

Think you have a shot that will wow us? Submit it to the Gadling flickr pool to be considered for Photo of the Day.

Photo of the Day (06.20.08)

This photo from fictionsus was taken in Vancouver’s Gastown district. The colors are understated but somehow almost unreal– maybe they are– and how can you not love the shopkeeper’s insouciant pose.
