Photo of the Day (12/24/07)

It’s not a holiday themed picture, but it really kind of struck me as I was perusing the Gadling flickr pool. The contrasted starkness of pink on sand and faded blue could have easily lent itself to a wintry scene. Thanks, Patrick Powers.

Wow, this almost makes me dizzy to look at. I can practically feel the blood rush out of my head as though I was standing in a massive cathedral, head tilted way back to check out the ceiling.

At first glance, I thought this was indeed a cathedral, but according to Elrina753, the photographer, this wonderfully detailed ceiling can be found within the Sabanci Mosque in Turkey. Personally, I’d love to enlarge this shot and glue it to my own ceiling at home. How cool would that be? But of course, I’d have to take down the mirror…

Har, har, har.

Photo of the Day (12/20/07)

I suppose I was in a bit of an adventurous spirit this morning when I came across this fine photograph in our Gadling Flickr Pool. Yes, I’ve bungee jumped before, but it was nowhere as spectacular as this legendary location in New Zealand. Just look at that water! What a beautiful end to a 43 meter bungee jump to be able to briefly soak your head before being whipped back up towards the bridge.

Hats off to MonkeyWobble for capturing this fine shot. I just wish we could have seen a close-up on that bungee jumper’s face as well.

Photo of the Day (12/19/07)

This photo by t3mujin whose photos seem to always follow the tips offered up by Jeff Nolan, is so vivid it almost makes my eyes hurt. I love shots like these were only part of a building is shown so that the composition is artwork as well. The blue tile feature, the texture of the wall and the blue of the background are wonderful together. This shot, according to the tags, was taken in Portugal.
