| PHOTO BY DAN WARKENTIN, FLICKR | THIS PHOTO BY DAN WARKENTIN IS SO ORDERLY THAT IT DOESN’T LOOK REAL, and I like that. This makes sense when you see the title of this photo. The contrast and order of this photo really made it jump out at me. Perfectly manicured landscaping in front of an atmospheric fog contrasts well with the bright spot of sky and the perfectly smooth reflecting pool. Thanks, Dan Warkentin!

| PHOTO BY BG DAY, FLICKR | THIS PHOTO, BY BG DAY, IS AN EXAMPLE OF WHAT INFRARED PHOTOGRAPHY LOOKS LIKE, Very different from a negative photo, an infrared photo is achieved by blocking out almost all of the visible light spectrum. What light remains can create beautiful colors and effects that are not normally possible, Thanks, BG Day! More Photos I Really Liked Today Click here to see our other Photos of the...

| PHOTO BY J H, FLICKR | THIS PHOTO BY J H LOOKS LIKE AN OPTICAL ILLUSION. Taken at the perfect time of day from the perfect perspective, this photo of the Milan Cathedral is almost surreally repetitive. It’s great. Thanks, J H!

| PHOTO BY LOCATION.HREF, FLICKR | THIS PHOTO BY LOCATION.HREF IS APPEALINGLY EMPTY. The beauty of this photo, depicting a vast, abandoned, gutted space, is found in the light and color. Lit only by daylight through through the open ceiling, the clean gray of concrete and the splashes of color from the graffiti really drew me into this photo. I also really like the largeness of the space, depicted well in this composition. Thanks, location.href! More Photos I Really Liked Today Click here...

| PHOTO BY ISMAEL JORDÁ, FLICKR | THIS PHOTO BY ISMAEL JORDÁ IS A SHINY, BEAUTIFUL USE OF MONOCHROME. It’s not as easy as you might think to make a rigid object like an airplane look as dynamic as this, especially with the very limited angle options of a person photographing one from the ground. It’s perfectly composed, sharply in-focus, and has great contrast, but my favorite part is probably the color. The deep blue-gray chosen as the palette for this photo is very striking,...

| PHOTO BY THANASORN JANEKANKIT, FLICKR | THIS PHOTO BY THANASORN JANEKANKIT USES COLOR, SHAPE AND PERSPECTIVE TO ACHIEVE A STRIKING RESULT. The rectangular box that the man is holding works nicely with the similarly shaped building in the background, and both, through perspective, seem to be of a similar size. I really like the blue gradient of the right side of the photo and how it works with the lighter blue of the sky. Thanks, THANASORN JANEKANKIT! More Photos I Really Liked Today ...

| PHOTO BY RZLBD, FLICKR | THIS PHOTO BY RZLBD, IS BEAUTIFUL IN ITS SIMPLICITY. I really like abstract photography, and this is a great example of one reason why: Abstract photography can elevate everyday surroundings through composition and timing, making something you’d normally just glance at worthy of hanging on your well. The colors are really vibrant and striking, and the compositional choices of how much sky and building to include in the frame really make this photo work....

| PHOTO BY AURÉLIEN ANDRE, FLICKR | THIS PHOTO, BY AURÉLIEN ANDRE, IS MORE INTERESTING THAN YOUR AVERAGE NATURE PHOTO. The Praying Mantis is a really interesting looking insect, but I prefer to see it back-lit, like in this photo. I really like the muted color palette as well, with just a hint of blue and yellow visible to highlight all the black. Thanks, Aurélien ANDRE! Click here to see our other Photos of the...
