This picture was taken near Mashobra, India by arunchs. I like how he cropped the picture to highlight the lines formed by each ridge. An amazing capture, indeed! Given the great visibility and forested mountains, this probably isn't the first image to come to mind when ...Photo of the Day (10-14-09)
This photo of the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco is a reminder to look at a subject from various angles in order to find that unusual shot.

I'm always impressed with a good black-and-white photo, but this one by the ubiquitous fiznatty positively took my breath away. What you're looking at here is the exhalation of a humpback whale, photographed in the Great Bear Rainforest in British Columbia, Canada. ...Photo of the Day (10.11.09)

I don't buy into the idea that Amsterdam is nothing more than a hedonist's paradise, but one could be forgiven for thinking that after seeing this bizarre assortment of condoms on display.
Flickr user Peter Rivera took this shot, which, if I'm not mistaken, features a ...Photo of the day (10-8-09)
Mingthein posted this picture to our Flickr group page a few years ago, but I've only just now stumbled upon it. Karen Walrond wrote in her Gadling feature, Through the Gadling Lens, about shooting cities at twilight, and she also covered cloud and sky photography just ...Photo of the day 10.05.09

This photo taken in New Hampshire by terberman gives me hope that this year's fall foliage in Ohio will be splendid. Last year's was a huge disappointment--nothing but green, a tint of yellow and then mottled brown. In order for colors to pop, like these beauties are doing ...Photo of the Day (9.29.09)

Having just come from the concrete jungle that is New York City, I've come to appreciate the urban landscapes that only large cities can offer. When the sky opens up in bright blue above the towering skyscrapers I have to pinch myself at the great modern progress that the ...Photo of the Day (9.25.09)
Well, fall officially began a few days ago, so we can expect to see a lot more trees looking like the ones in this photo from flickr user terberman.

This panoramic picture taken in San Juan, Puerto Rico by robertrex365 is a perfect example of an HDR shot that hasn't been overdone to the point of looking like a scene from The Lord of the Rings. Robert is taking part in Project 365!, which is a Flickr group that is ...
