Photo of the day (01/07/07)

Ahhh, great front yard treatment! Oh, the fertile soil of South America! I mean, how many landscaping companies in the US can grow blooming trees through cars?

All joking aside, this is a great photo from Uruguay by Marni Rachel. Awesome colors, too. Almost looks like an old photograph, partially painted.

Photo of the Day 1/6/2008


According to the tags on ourmanwhere’s page, this photo was taken in Krakow, Poland during the Christmas season. I love the old-school feel of the shot, as though it were taken 60 year ago. The sun seems to hover over and beam magically from above the distant cathedral, as though the two were spiritually connected.

If you’ve got some great travel photos to share, upload them to Gadling’s Flickr pool. We peruse the pool daily for cool shots for our Photo of the Day feature!

And so we return to Grand Teton National Park where it seems that every photograph snapped is one of absolute perfection – at least every photograph snapped by Funkiller who captured this picturesque cabin and meadow last June when the weather was slightly warmer than it is now, but the air equally as crisp and clear.

I’ve never personally been to the Grand Tetons but judging by the photos submitted to our Gadling Flickr Pool, I need to get my butt there as soon as possible.

I guess it’s because it’s cold out and I truly miss all those comfy, European cafes that this photograph really spoke to me today. Sure, it was taken in a café in Taiwan, but isn’t life just simply wonderful with nothing more than a newspaper, warm drink, and the friendly atmosphere of your local café?

Thanks go out to Allysdad for taking me back to a place where coffee is served in real mugs, instead of some cheap, disposable paper cup.

If you’d like one of your photos chosen for my own personal, halcyon reasons and then spotlighted on Photo of the Day, be sure to visit our Gadling Flickr Pool and upload away.

Photo of the Day (1/2/08)

One of the most stunning places I’ve traveled was Taroko Gorge in Taiwan. When I saw the photo LadyExpat posted to Gadling’s photo pool on December 31, I thought, “Yes! I know that place. I’ve walked along that very trail to this very shrine. As LadyExpat notes, it was built to honor the people who died building the highway through these mountains. She picked the perfect time to go here. The photo was taken December 24. This time of year in Taiwan, you won’t drip sweat hoofing it up the trails like I did in August the year I went.

If you have your own stunning shot, post it at Gadling’s Photo Pool on Flickr. We’re so excited when we see such finery and yours might be posted with our gushing praise.
