Photo of the Day, November 5, 2009: Leafy Contrast

BGLewandowski was able to pair cool blues and warm reds in today's PotD. The photo has a sufficient depth of field to give you fine detail in both the leaf and the wood, and the great shadows add another dimension to the subject.

Photo of the Day, October 29, 2009: Arboretum Red

D. Brim gives us another great representation of beautiful New England fall colors with this shot. Colorful gradients combine with a shallow depth of field to really isolate this wonderful piece of fall foliage.

Photo of the Day, October 28, 2009: DSC_7055

Sekbaavi has a strong composition and great colors in today's photo. A new take on a classic theme, the tree lined lane. Good framing and a nice vanishing point add a great sense of space to the photo.

Photo of the Day, October 27, 2009: Firm Grasp

Kmacgray's shot is the second in our autumn week spectacular. (OK, perhaps spectacular is a little much) Animal shots usually work best when you're on their level, and this one holds true to that.

Photo of the Day, October 26, 2009: The Floating World

Historygradguy kicks off a week of autumn PotDs here on Bostonist. This shot was taken over the weekend in the Public Garden. The low perspective and fine details are just great.

Photo of the Day, October 19, 2009: Red Maple Leaf

Photo of the Day, October 15, 2009: Weather Forecast

karrie_amelia blended two photos and a texture layer to come up with today's PotD. Although not a traditional photo, this is definitely a great example of a photograph as art.

Photo of the Day, September 24, 2009: First Full Day of Fall

charlieontheradio has a great photo taken with his iPhone. Our initial impression on seeing the photo was that it came from a Holga, or similar camera with it's overly saturated colors, and vignetting.

Fall has arrived. Celebrate with some cheap eats.

We recommend viewing it large Flickr talent tommyvon gives us this quintessential New England capture. We love the bright HDR-enhanced colors and the gorgeous autumn sky. The line of the railroad tracks really draws you in and encourages you to wonder what lies around the bend. Thanks tommyvon! This Bostonist is travelling to St. Louis for the Thanksgiving holiday so Photo of the Day will be taking a hiatus until Tuesday the 27th. The...
