KODAK MOMENT of the Day

Akasha, a three-year-old Bengal tiger, is the world's only female underwater diving tiger and resides at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom in Vallejo, Calif. I was asked to take some new photos of the tigers swimming underwater and by chance the lighting and conditions were just right. I took this image in May, 2011 and it has proven to be quite popular. My favorite subject matter to shoot are tigers.

I liked the rust and texture that remained on this unrestored 1936 Ford. I love listening to the stories people tell about when they owned a particular car from their teenage years.

A wonderful sunset in Weston, Florida

Editor's Note: Enjoy today's International Picture of the Day selection!

I was on a pier, on lake Michigan in Chicago, and I was looking out unto the city. It's a beautiful place to stand and look out on, well there it was, the perfect picture!

The Hmong are a hilltribe living in northern Thailand in the area of Chiang Mai. The Kids were at the entrance to a temple to entertain tourists.

This spider was hanging outside my backdoor in Pennsylvania, USA for several days before I took a photo. It wasn't until I uploaded it did I see incredible patterns on his underside!! What started out as pic of a spider turned into a photo that I love!!

The green iguana is a large, arboreal, mostly herbivorous species of lizard native to Central, South America, and the Caribbean. It can also be found in the United States in South Florida, Hawaii, and Texas ? Photographed in the tropical gardens at Flamingo Gardens in Davie, Florida ? flamingogardens.org

After a morning of pouring rain, the sky cleared and we were able to feast our eyes on the River Arno in all its splendid beauty. October 2011

I love how this turned out.. it's a wonderful way to portray family generations. This was the perfect family to do this with, the resemblance is so strong... A true treasure.

This cute resident of Riverbanks Zoo in Columbia, South Carolina, looked like he was playing coy, while sitting in this tree.

This image was taken at Emerald Bay on Lake Tahoe, CA. It was a beautiful dawn morning. The Bay is really calm early in the morning.

The World Trade Center Memorial Lights taken last year. Let us never forget.

Connecticut beaches in September are at their best, still warm, less crowded. My grandson found his first piece of sea glass....

White Ibis get ruffled over differing opinions regarding space turf along the shoreline of Lake Jesup located in Seminole County, Florida.

Took it many years ago on the mall in Washington D.C. It was a tall structure that you had to get under to see the star. Only by looking at it in a different aspect did the true beauty of the subject emerge.

Dahlia's were in bloom at the Mendocino Botanical Gardens in Fort Bragg, California. Mendocino is a magical coastal location and these flowers are right at home blooming in every color of the rainbow and every shape found in nature.

This picture is special to me because it is one of the memories of our trekking that me and my friends did. This picture was taken on the way to Dudhsagar water falls in State of Goa, India. It was taken when were crossing a rail tunnel. Since trekking is associated with travel.

Im very new to photography and this was my first picture in my SFO trip. Picture was taken in 17 mile drive spanish bay in california.

Picture of a friendly squirrel that got close. Picture taken in a park in Manhattan. It's special to me because I had never been so close to a squirrel before

A portrait of my beautiful fourth child Luna.

Apples in the Fall make for colorful subjects.

This resident of Riverbanks Zoo, in Columbia, South Carolina, USA had his skin colored by a coating of the everpresent, Carolina, red clay. I found the shapes and textures of his body to make a very interesting subject.

On a leisure bike ride in the Netherlands outside the city of Groningen I came across a field of lovely small horses. This was my favorite.

This was taken in my back yard . I love the vibrant colors and unique look .These Passion Flowers are nature at it's best.

The picture is taken January 2011, Frederikssund, Denmark.

This is a picture of my young brother who is continuingly revising for his exams. One of his textbooks had the word "Love" scrawled on the side and I couldn't not take a picture in the gloom of the study. I understand the pressures of teenagers with their exams at the moment and I believe that this captures all the small things that they aren't noticing by being ignorant to everything but their studies.

Fishing in Clinton, NJ on a spring day.

It is one of the best pictures I have ever taken, because of the idea the focus and the girl. The Idea is a girl in coffee, that is very unusual and that is why it is an artistic photo. The photo is taken in a photostudio during my high school year in australia.

for me speaks about two good friend even are different like race

I took this picture on October 17, 2012 on my farm from on top of a hill from my neighbors farm. I just think it is beautiful

It's special to me because I love animals and this goat looks like he's smiling at the camera. Animals are so intuitive and happy, they are much appreciated in this world! I took it in Piedmont, South Carolina, where I live.

Thrilled to see the glorious fall colors, I scrambled up into an oak tree and snapped this shot of the leaf. I really find the backlighting enchanting.

Daisy is my daughter's pet hedgehog. We love to hear her chirp/purr when she is being loved and held. Daisy is getting old for a hedgehog and has recently developed a tumor on her gums. You can probably see the swelling on her left, your right. Right now she is happy and content. We hope she stays that way for a long time. I love this picture of my daughter holding her.

Taken while on a photography trip to Yellowstone park and the Grand Tetons

Shreya, my neighbour, loves to pose in front of the camera as much as she likes to get behind it and shoot people. She loves looking through my camera but it gets too heavy for her to hold and shoot. One day, while I was shooting a subject, Shreya insisted me give her my camera for her to play with. I gave her a toy camera instead that was apt for her size. I took this image while she was content playing with her new gear. I reserved this image of the "Little Photographer" to celebrate World Photography Day! I have taken this shot in Aug'13 at Hyderabad, India.

I was walking through the campus of the College of Charleston, in Charleston, South Carolina, when I noticed this view of the stairs to Randolph Hall, the oldest building on the campus.

I do love my cat, however, she is hopeless when it comes to 'hunting'. This photo captures her in attempt to catch a butterfly. She was unsuccessful. Bless her. I sat and watched her do this in the living room of my house, through the window blinds.

-I was very excited to see the colors like this in real life! -Taken in Rochester NY, directly across the river from Kodak! -It relates to nature because it's part of a long trail that goes along the Genesee River and through the forest. Great trail!

Melbourne Florida Nov 2008. We all have butterfly pictures that we like....this is my favorite.

I took this picture of my dad working on a tractor, about a year ago. As soon as I scanned the negative and later printed it in the darkroom, it became one of my favorite pictures I've ever taken.

This is my dog Monty and he's very special to me. It was taken at my home in Upper Clatford. It relates to the theme as he is my pet.

My niece had a family party and this is one of the great desserts that she made!

Mushrooms from the Santa Cruz Mushrooms Festival

This picture was taken on Oct 21, 2012, in a small town in central Texas. Located in the alley behind several buildings in the town's historic district, are many murals painted by local artists. This particular mural represents a strong influence of Mexican culture present in the state of Texas.

Found this carved pumpkin face in a lane way in rural Ontario, Canada......... and its very scary. Photo taken: Oct 6. 2012.

This is my great niece, Ava Bug. She is a great little model and you never know what outfit she will show up in. Love this...

We carved out pumpkin and had it on the porch when an unexpected friend "Mr.Toad" decided it looked like a nice hiding place. Gotta love frogs and toads right!

This picture was taken August 21, 2013 in Macon, GA. I had tried to take pictures the night before, because it was a Blue Moon, but the sky was only clear for a few minutes before we had thunderstorms that lasted the rest of the night. The next night was clear, so I headed out with my camera. A movement caught my eye,and I saw the spider building the web in the tree in front of me. I positioned myself so the spider was between me and the moon, and then waited for him to zig and zag into position.
