Tell me this photo doesn’t look like something out of a horror film? Indeed you just might say that in a sort of sad corporate sense. The picture comes from twoeightnine and is a shot of the Kodak Building in Rochester, New York. Kodak hasn’t been doing that great since people started converting to digital from film. Sure, there are still die hards out there who stick to film, but they never really managed to dominate digital they way they did film. Anyway, can we say that the building here, rather ghostly, is perhaps a reflection of the company’s struggles? Too far reaching? Yeah, probably. Either way, it’s a fine photo.

Neighborhood shots are some of the best! This one of a local grocery store is located in Vancouver’s West End neighborhood on Barclay Street. Ohad* is the photographer behind this particular shot and in his notes he states that a skunk almost got in the way of this well-lit scene. Now that is pretty random.

Aw, the Parisians. Love ’em or hate ’em, you have to admit that they do live in a pretty spectacular city where art and culture abound at every corner–and in this case, from every gutter.
Titled “Reaching Out,” this shot of the Rue de L’Ancienne Comedie in Paris subtly captures the sly humor of some fleeting street artist. The feeling of anguish is so perfectly communicated by the outstretched hand and further accentuated by the lead-foot of a passerby.
Great job, Pirano, for catching this at the perfect time and angle!

I’m not sure what it is about docks lately, but some very powerful ones have been appearing in our Gadling Flickr Pool. This particular one, captured by Martha Edwards, is somewhere in Sydney Harbor. I would have thought this darkish, moody photograph was taken someplace like New England, but Martha has pleasantly surprised us with a fantastic shot that lends a very different air to the otherwise warm and sunny Sydney Harbor.

Nothing could possibly be more aggravating than having your trusty old land cruiser stop and break down on you when you’re on your way to or from a surfing trip in Tanzania. However, considering the scenery, which looks filled with beautiful greens and yellows something suggests it may have made for a nice pit stop. Hopefully there was a mechanic in one of the vehicles because something also tells me they weren’t too close to a repair shop. Only localsurfer would be able to fill us in on the details as this is his wonderful shot comes from his always awesome collection found in the Gadling Flickr pool.
