Filed under: Food and Drink, Photos, Africa, Egypt, Photo of the Day We at Gadling love street food. Whether it’s from an upscale Manhattan cart or from a Chinese cannon, you’ll find that some of the most satisfying and authentic local food doesn’t come from a restaurant. Today’s Photo of the Day by Flickr user micke77023 comes from Cairo, Egypt of a falafel man who seems to enjoy his product.

Vast elongated cotton-candy clouds are location-independent, after all. Captured by Flickr user matt coats earlier this month, this is a dreamy image, a reminder that the sky, like the ocean, inspires journeys through its very enormity.

Filed under: South America, Argentina, Photo of the Day This vibrant Buenos Aires overpass can’t help but grab viewers’ attention. Situated in the neighborhood of Recoleta, it looks as if it were inspired by a fancy silk scarf. (As an aside, why does super colorful public art crop up so infrequently in cities much grayer than Buenos Aires? One glance at colors like these and a minor case of Seasonal Affective Disorder might just vaporize.) Flickr user Guillermo Esteves took this photograph…. Read more

Perusing the gorgeous antiques, handcrafted jewelry, and other treasures at the weekly Feria de San Telmo in Buenos Aires, Argentina, was pretty close to a heavenly experience. This photo, from Flickr user Guillermo Esteves, captures one of the market’s beautiful arrays of antique seltzer bottles and was taken with an Olympus XZ-1. Does your photo belong here?
