Wow, that’s one red barn! Actually, it is a 100-year-old grist mill located in Alley Spring, Missouri that has been nicely captured by Hoot1 for today’s Photo of the Day. Painting something this red should probably be against the law, but it does lend a nice contrast to this otherwise green wonderland. Good job Hoot1!

Today’s blaze of yellow sunshine and peeling paint comes to us from Nicaragua thanks to the fine photography skills of OurManWhere. I’m not sure what the product being advertised might be (perhaps detergent), but I love how that beam of light slicing through the photo is so very appropriate for the one Spanish word I recognize: sol (sun).
Confession: I’ve never sat through one entire Stars Wars film ever. Still – this photograph makes me laugh as I can imagine that playing the violin is the kind of past-time or part-time job cramping Mr. Vader’s style. Captured by BrooksT in Victoria, B.C.; I wonder what the world would be like without street performers?

As winter seems to not want to loosen its grip, what better than to think of warmer times and places?
Here’s a shot of the sun setting over the red tile roofs of Dubrovnik, Croatia, taken on a fairly recent trip there. Can you feel the warm breeze off the Mediterranean?
Now how trippy is this shot? I can’t say that I would have picked it if there hadn’t been such a great explanation of what it is my eyes are witnessing here, but since there was such an explanation it’s getting Gadling love today. Stormygirl, the photographer, notes that the photo of these very white snow geese was captured on the farmlands of the Skagit County in northern Washington State where tens of thousands of snow geese spend their winter. She also notes that they are quite sensitive to disturbance and if you get out of your car – well you can expect a scene like the one above.
All I can say to Stormygirl is that you are one brave soul.
