Today we go to carlhancock for our POTD. Taken in Wyoming at the Grand Teton National Park this shot feels as if you’re just a few miles from the base of the mountain and is simply amazing. Don’t know whether this was taken through Photoshop or not, but either way the colors are absolutely eye-popping and pull you in. I’ve always found it hard to tell with certain pictures. Anyhow, I’m very surprised we never picked this before now, but I’m hoping to see more of Carl Hancock’s photography in the Gadling Flickr pool.

A lovely shot of the glowing crags of Mt. Clarence King claims our much coveted Photo of the Day award for today. Shot by Misha Logvinov, the photo seems to have been taken NE Ridge of the mountain in Kings Canyon National Park in the Sierra Nevadas.

I love Arabic and Persian writing even if it’s written on a dusty piece of masking tape or label on a jar. While I think I can make out the words pronunciations I couldn’t tell you whether it’s paint or condiments in those jars. I’m sure evanr would have a clue. He took this photo while in Islamic Cairo right outside of the Khan Al-Khalili Market. So telling, yet not so telling.

Having spent several years of my life in or near the Rocky Mountains, I am always eager to highlight the natural beauty of this magnificent range whenever I am able.
Case in point, today’s Photo of the Day from jeremy_h that shows us the lovely colors emerging near Alberta in the Rockies. If you have ever stood in a copse of aspens in early fall, you know what a dazzling experience it can be for the eyes..a bit like standing in fire. While the photo here doesn’t quite convey that notion completely, the brilliant yellows here are still very cool.

Summer is now a thing of the past folks, unless you’re living someplace like Florida where Fall scenes like the one above are a hard find. Anyhow, it’s time to bundle up, grab the cold weather clothes, roll around in the leaves and prepare for the snow. For now we’ll concentrate on rolling and playing in the leaves as this shot taken by ohad at Washington DC’s Smithsonian National Zoo makes me want to plunge right in. Very colorful!
