Photo of the Day (12.14.08)



There's something inherently beautiful in the daily rituals of life. A man slowly walking down a quiet street. A farmer planting a rice paddy. Merchants selling their goods at the market. Perhaps that's what caught my eye in this photo of two hawkers in Nigeria from Lola Akinmade. It has a certain "reportage" slice-of-life style to it, as if the viewer was privy to an intimate moment we might not have seen otherwise. There's nothing particularly memorable about the scene, but somehow it still catches your eye, and that's why I think it works.

Have any travel photos you'd like to share with the world? Why not add them to our Gadling pool on Flickr? We might just pick yours as our Photo of the Day.
