Silk Road, Kyrgyzstan In the wild territories of south Kyrgyzstan, not far from the legendary high-altitude Torugart Pass, lies the Tash Rabat Caravanserai. A true reminder of the glorious Silk Road history of travels pictured here on a clear morning sunlight.(This photo and caption were submitted to My Shot.)
What Makes This a Photo of the Day? I like to have a few strong landscapes in the mix every month. The location itself is of course beautiful, but the photograph also conveys the beauty of the Tash Rabat Caravanserai nestled among the velvety brown hills. —Alexa Keefe, Photo of the Day editor

What Makes This a Photo of the Day? The symmetry of the bird and its reflection are what first drew me to this image. I also love the energy captured in the forward movement of the bird as it races across the frame. —Alexa Keefe, Photo of the Day editor

They are brothers and with a limitless spirit they roam the world, with an infinite source of happiness, they feed the world with life; they are the performers of ecstasy and they are the lead entertainers.
Fireflies
Photograph by Teruo Araya, My ShotThis Month in Photo of the Day: Your Photos
The dream of the night of summer. Many Japanese visualize the dead's soul, seeing the light of a firefly. It is charmed by the light of a firefly as if it was seeing the momentary dream.

As I walked along Bondi Beach in Australia I came across this woman in red. I watched her as she fed the seagulls and enjoyed the calmness. When I finally had a chat with her she told me she was from England and has been living in Australia for two years. She told me that every day since she's lived there, she would go to the market and get the seagulls leftover food for free. When I asked her why she did it, she told me the seagulls can’t do it. They give her peace; she gives them food.

What Makes This a Photo of the Day? No matter what the theme of the month, I like to have a mix of city and countryside, of architecture and nature. The bold colors and graphic elements in this frame work well together, making this an easy choice. —Alexa Keefe, Photo of the Day editor

Cricket Game, India Photograph by Danny Pemberton, My ShotThis Month in Photo of the Day: Your Photos
Cricket is the passion and preferred pastime of almost every Indian boy. Playing on their village pitch, these boys don't let scarcity of resources hold them back, improvising with an old tire for wickets and plank of wood for a bat.
