Photo of the Day (5/10/07)

This shot made me sad because it reminded me that I once again missed my annual trip to Joshua Tree.

For those of you wondering if this is some tribute to the U2 album, Joshua Tree National Park is actually located in the high desert of California.

Known primarily for its world class rock climbing, the park is also riddled with these funny shaped trees, and thus, the name. It is a special place indeed, although with all the times I’ve been, I can’t say I’ve ever caught a sunset as beautiful as this one captured by Bernard-SD.

When localsurfer strikes the Gadling Flickr pool with his whimsical, secret, shady, sunken tree-lined photographs he sure does strike hard or shoot with an incredibly focused eye, doesn’t he? How I’d love to be the lucky individual in blue walking towards the end of the path. According to localsurfer’s notes anyone can visit Clovelly for a fee, but not everyone knows the back way in. Nice work!

Is there ever a rainy, yucky, ick day of weather in Greece? Almost every single photo I find coming from the country or specifically from Santorini from several cameras always looks to have the dreamiest of blue skies and water to match. The white walls are NEVER dirty or the photographers aren’t getting snap shots of them. This one from StrudelMonkey was taken somewhere along the trail from Oia to Thira. He notes that there are amazing views all the way. Makes you want to find out for yourself this summer, huh?

It’s spring and time for you-know-what in Paris.

This great shot by Marni Rachel so nicely captures this wonderful season in the French capital; two young lovers wrapped up in each other’s presence as history looms unnoticed nearby.

If you would like one of your great shots to be considered for Photo of the Day, please visit out Gadling Photo Pool over at Flickr and upload your very best.

The deep blue color of this photograph is what initially attracted my attention. But, after reading a description by the photographer, Hoot1, I was sucked in farther by the fact that this pretty little spring located in Ozark National Scenic Rivers, Missouri, is actually 300 feet deep. That’s an entire football field! You jump into that thing with an anvil clutched to your chest, and nobody will see you ever again.

That thought aside, isn’t it just the prettiest little spring you’ve ever seen?
