Photo of the Day (12/14/06)
Um... this is a shot of a camel.
And a pool table.
In the desert.
It's one of those very bizarre travel moments where there is no reason or explanation for what's happening, just an opportunity to shoot a fantastic photograph. This particular bizarre scene was captured in Mongolia's Gobi Desert by Bluepeak. If he knows what's going on, however, he's not sharing it with his Flickr readers.
Nonetheless, a cool shot and very worthy of our Photo of the Day honors.

I guess I should give some background to the photo. Pool is pretty popular in Mongolia, even in the middle of the Gobi desert, it seems. I found the table near a "guanz" (roadside restaurant), housed in a yurt by the side of the "road" (ie, dirt track). A patron clearly thought the table would make a good place to hitch his ride while having lunch!
