I agree, it's a stunning photo... but I thought maybe just a little too good to be true as I'd swear I'd seen it before.
Sure enough if you read the blog they're very upfront about the fact it's a download from Google.
At the end of the day though, it's still a great photo! Reply to this

Ah so it is. Thats a shame but still a very good photo. Not sure if this will qualify for PoW now. Maybe Jo will know more about this technical issue but there are plenty more budding photographers out there willing to share their skills..so on with the cause.

P.S. thanks for the heads up. Must make note "read full blog as well as look at pretty photos" thanks again.

Think i would of fell over taking this shot. Cool picture. Reply to this

I love the shot, but for me personally now that I know it is a google photos -- it would not receive my vote. It is an amazing photo.

A good lesson is to read the entire blog. Sometimes when I am looking for photos I don't read the entire blog and that is not good.

Sophie, you've been finding some great photos recently. I love the chick and the runners. Reply to this

I love this photo. We see photos of people jumping on fairly flat surfaces frequently but this one gets your attention. This photographer has many nice photos.

Sorry, but as they didn't take the photo themselves, it doesn't qualify - nice photo though :-) Reply to this

Seen a great photo you'd like to nominate? This thread is the place to do it :-)

2) The photographer must have a minimum of 5 published non-private blog entries, and a maximum of 4 'recommends'.

Not open to panorama photos.

Please feel free to also 'second' or 'third' etc photos which other people have nominated :-)

I submit this wonderful photo for photo of the week. I admit I have a fetish for taking pictures of empty boats but this photographer has captured the essence of mystery. The clear waters and the view of a partial boat leaves one wondering what else is in the boat. I like that.

Okay, I'll try this again! This particular photo I felt captured the very essence of traveling...and Greece in one little click. An old bored gentleman smoking at an outside establishment, dinner drying in the afternoon sun, and the blue paint on the building that indirectly reflects the bluest of ocean. I still really like it.

ARGH! I just read the time limit on the nominations, so obviously this one is out. never mind.

I love Greece. I love octupus. I love this photo.
Too bad it does not meet the criteria. Maybe you can find a recent one because I'm sure it would win! Reply to this

This lovely orchid should be considered for photo of the week.
