After weeks of stepping through dozens of America’s dry characterless farm lands in Oklahoma, Indiana and Illinois my team and I finally stumbled on a site full of lights, action and dizzying kiddie carnival rides in Pampa, Texas. Today’s POTD is a simple shot of a Ferris wheel in motion from my own photo files. With summer here I’m sure scenes like this will be springing up all over the states.

This is one of those shots that very well could have been taken 10,000 years ago. It is so primordial, so ancient. Frankly, it’s no surprise that traveler Tom Taylor captured this shot on the Galapagos Islands where time has indeed, stood still.

If you put your ear up really close, you can hear the ocean! Today’s shot comes to us from Tom Taylor’s visit to the Galapagos Islands. It sure looks to me like he traveled back in time to capture this shot instead of catching a boat out to the islands, but that’s his story and he’s stickin’ to it.

Something smells fishy. Oh, it’s this huge fish taken by Kouiskas at…well, I’m not sure where it was taken. But I love the angle, and thought this was a really cool photo. Reminded me quite a lot of my weekends wandering the Pike Place Market in Seattle.

This photo easily won today’s Photo of the Day. The shot blew me away when I saw it. Sure, I was tempted to do something for Father’s Day, a nice picture of a father and son on some grand travel adventure. But I thought this shot of Mother Nature was better. The shot if of the Cleveland Volcano in the Aleutian Islands.
