Today's Photo of the Day was submitted to our Flickr group by Giona Bachmann. It's an abstract close-up shot of some colored pencil shavings. It was shot with an Olympus OM-D E-M5. As an abstract image, the shock of blue in the center and the accents of yellow and green give it more excitement than ou would get out of typical black pencils. If you'd like to see more of Giona's work, check out this Flickr page.

Today's Photo of the Day was submitted to our Flickr group by Lucy Marti. The high-contrast black and white works excellently with the scene, which is already rich with contrast. Leaving the subject in the shadow and rendering her as a silhuoette takes some of the overt sexuality out of the photo and makes it more subtle, relying more on the shape and pose rather than flesh tones. You can see more of Lucy's work (some of which is NSFW) on her <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/lucianamarti/with/14226385018/">Flickr feed</a>.

Today's Photo of the Day was captured by Christopher Johnson during a sunset at Anehoomalu Beach in Hawaii. "Originally I would have opted for a slow shutter to blur any water movement, but this time the ripples played a huge role in the foreground," Christopher writes about creating the image. "I dropped the aperture to 8 in order to keep a good depth of field while speeding the shutter enough to freeze the slow moving water."
