Photo of the Day (5/18/06)

This is one of those photos that is just short of being brilliant.  Throw in some crystal clear morning air, and this would have been a prize winner.  Nonetheless, I still love the balloon’s bright colors and the soft ice-cream swirls of Goreme’s bizarre landscape (Turkey). 

Thanks go out to JRAWLS for contributing this shot to our Gadling Flickr Pool.  If you’d like one of your favorites considered for our Photo of the Day feature, just hop on over to Flickr and start uploading.

Photo of the Day (5/16/2006)


For those seeking peace through pictures, Gadling Flickr contributor trentstrohm  has got a wonderful photo of the glassy surface of Lake Bled in Slovenia that makes it to our Photo of the Day today. I was just thinking what a nice place this would be to sit and have a cup of coffee and contemplate life.

Photo of the Day (5/15/06)

Presenting this beautiful photo by morrissey, taken from the banks of the Lagoa River in Brazil.  The shot’s so beautiful, I don’t know if I’d rather be on the water, where the picture seems to have been taken, or walking through the beautifully-lit village.

If you’d like one of your travel photos to be featured in our Image of the Day, be sure to visit our Flickr Pool, and upload your best shots there.  Every day we’ll pick one to be featured here on Gadling.

Photo of the Day (5/13/06)


For today’s photo I went flipping through my own camera for a shot taken from the road where I spent 6.5 hours wandering Ohio’s lesser explored routes by foot. After miles of seeing nothing on my way from Grove City, OH into Sabina, OH (a.k.a.The Eden of Ohio) I noticed this tiny tattered shack of sorts and found it rather comforting. (Even if the roof is falling to pieces.) Now if you’ll excuse me I’ll depart from this shameless photo plug and promise to post many more in the future – not because the photography or the subject is particularly spectacular, but because I want to take you along my walk across America. That’s only if you’ll let me, of course.

Photo of the Day (5/12/06)

This is one of those rare photos that stopped me in my tracks and made me do a double-take.  What the heck?!?! I suppose I should actually be tipping my hat to the snowman builder himself, because that is what truly makes this photo.  But nonetheless, credit is due to luminouslens for doing a great job of capturing this odd snowman and his creepy sneer.  I love it!
