#38. Bee Cooler   I honestly don’t know if Bee was lying on her back when she shot this or if she put the camera on self timer and plopped the camera in flowers and crossed her fingers for a photographic Hail Mary or something in between. Regardless, that little...

#39. Carrie Dauenhauer Stanley Photographing spider webs is almost always about lighting and choosing backgrounds carefully. That’s how you get those threads of whatever it is to glow. Dew certainly helps.   Notice the way the brightest beads of dew light up against...

#40. Christy Eilers Wade How does this picture work so well? It’s the background. It’s the placement of those two dogs against the brightest and darkest areas of the background/the rug and floor. That background is making it easy for your eyes to go right to the good...

#41. Kay Keeshan Kay, I feel like I’m being manipulated by you. I’m thinking that you’re thinking that if you post your photographs in black-and-white they will become the Fan Photo of the Day. Well, it worked. : )   “I’m just recovering from keeping an 18 month...

#42. Jenn Rose Very simple lesson here; You don’t always have to show faces around the Christmas tree. There’s plenty of time for that later. You can always get him to hold up his new fancy piece of electronics (a PS4) and look in the camera. But for now, no face says...

#43. Suzanne Bowker I know, I’m a little late on this one, but the boys wanted to sleep at grandpa and grandma’s house on Christmas Eve. Yes, it’s true that the grandparents are not IN the picture, but that’s a different photograph. This...

#44. Margaret Davaz I so appreciated Margaret’s subject matter here.   Sparrows strike me as greatly under appreciated. (Also there are so many different kinds of sparrows. All I know about them is that the white throated sparrow says Old Tom Peabody, Peabody,...

#45. Ciel Evans There’s something to be said for going out in the woods on a sunny day with your camera and the girls and just playing. These girls don’t even appear to be in the woods, I’m thinking it’s more like Carnegie Hall. Splotchy light...

#46. Cori Carter Cori said this is her “crew of little people”.   I have to give it to them, they are cooperative photo subjects. You can’t say that about every group of seven young people.   What I like about this is the way the girl at the bottom anchors the entire...

#47. Anne Korte Gareau Anne said her daughter is graceful and she wanted to capture that grace in her senior portrait. I totally got that even before I read her caption. They may be under a rough and tumble overpass, but it’s swirling choreographed graffiti on the...

#48. Dawn Lyons We’ve seen almost countless photographs of autumn leaves on this site over the years and it’s always inspiring when someone shows up with the same old subject matter and does something we’ve never seen. This is really cool. There it was, waiting to be...

#49. Linda Smith‎ It’s our second shaving photograph of the week. It’s Linda’s son showing his curious son how to shave.   Someplace in the inner sanctum of the pyramids there must be some kind of hieroglyphic of this same situation…people have been recognizing this...
