It’s Labor Day in the US (and Labour Day in Canada), which is sort of the unofficial end of summer, and the unofficial start of autumn. And so, in honour of this day, I couldn’t help but share this vibrant shot shared by robertrex365 in the Gadling flickr pool — it just seems to capture the mood of the waning season. Well done.
If you’ve got some great travel shots you’d love to share, be sure to upload them to the Gadling pool on Flickr. We might just pick one as our Photo of the Day.
If life ever gives you the opportunity to drive through Wyoming, do it. Ash Crowe took this shot on a road trip to California, and reminded me of those feelings I’ve had in a car with miles and miles of visible landscape in either direction. There’s a sensation of awe and wonder at the vastness and beauty.
Once, when we were driving through Wyoming, my son looked about and said, “We are the only one here.” Isn’t this sky absolutely gorgeous?

Since this is my last weekend in Peru, I felt it would only be appropriate to send along a postcard from this scenic land. And talk about waking up and having this as your morning vista! This gorgeous photo by rickmccharles has a whole slew of beautiful snapshots of Andean Peru. This particular shot was taken on the Ausangate Circuit, which — well — pretty much speaks for itself if you ask me. The Andes sure make for nice photos, don’t you think?

Anyone who has traveled in a developing country may notice how this photo by TR Ryan captures perfectly the ingredients of every day village life. See it as a check list, if you will. Chickens? check. Goat? check. Plastic cup? check. Flip flops and bare feet? check and check. A bit of old rusty corrugate serving as a partial wall? check. Bicycle? check. It almost doesn’t matter in which country the scene is set. The ingredients will be the same.
If Dutch painter Jan Vermeer were alive today, he’d turn this shot into a painting. Instead of the woman pouring milk into a bowl, as his subject does in, “The Kitchen Maid,” he would encapsulate in oil and canvas the life of this woman where she lives in Villa Esperanza, Nicaragua ensuring that her children get a meal.

There´s something both totally fitting yet out of place in this photo. The London Tower Bridge, as I see it, is one of the most famous bridges in the world because of its age and history. While the bridge that stands over the River Thames today was built in the 19681894, I like to imagine it as a throwback to the days of old. And while the postmodern streams of red and purple lights add nice contrast to this image, it seems like London (just like any other place) has to find that nice blend between old and new.
Needless to say, this photo taken by jrodmanjr is quite stunning. The blur of pedestrians and the streaks of light make for a perfect image of the today´s London.
