One of the gems from Willy Volk’s fisheye photography collections for your viewing pleasure. This one, “From the Gold Dust,” was taken in San Francisco last month. I like the gold-ish tint, very apropos!
Because everything here is pretty much in focus, it is safe to assume that Willy came to this watering hole for research purposes only.

One of the best things about traveling is seeing items and situations that seem completely foreign to you — like a pile of strange-looking fish for sale, for example. Pirano snapped this photo in Split, Croatia. No word on whether he/she made a purchase.

A couple days ago, Catherine snagged one of Larixk’s photos for a Photo of the Day selection. Now, I’ve picked this one, but it’s just by chance. The message on this building captures the mood I’m in. Time, for me, comes in fits and starts. Rarely is there a smooth transition from the beginning of the day until the end. Right now, I’m wondering how long I have to finish this sentence before I have to pick my son up from the school bus. The answer? Two seconds.
How long from the time I left to pick him up and come back? 15 minutes. On a larger thematic scale, this shot has a mysterious quality. This is in Berlin, but where? What are those white tents? How long will they stay up?
If you have a shot that evokes questions about the meaning of life send it along at Gadling’s Flickr photo pool. We love to ponder.
During the months I spent in Southeast Asia a few years back, Tuk-Tuks were my primary method of transportation — not only were they cheaper than regular taxis, but they were more of a novelty. After all, taxis are everywhere but you’ll only find Tuk Tuks on the other side of the ocean (And for the most part, that’s a good thing–those guys are noisy, smelly and not the best for a winter climate.)
But if Thailand has Tuk Tuks, what, do you suppose, is the vehicle in this photo called? It comes to us from mce323 and was taken in Antioquia, Colombia. Do you know? If not, any guesses?

I love the reflection in the wet pavement. Shanghai can look like so many different cities, depending on where in the city you take the photo. This one, taken by petetamproductions reminds me of Paris.
With that said, I think this lens has definitely been kind to Shanghai. I have stayed on that street and it wasn’t quite so sophisticated or so shiny.
