Today’s Photo of the Day was captured by Jordi Corbilla during a trip to Dubai.

“We arrived early to base camp and I managed to sneak behind where the camels were and I took few pictures with them,” Corbilla writes regarding the image. “While they were resting I managed to take few snaps of them. Very gentle animals and very friendly. This picture came a bit funny as it seems that the camel in the middle realized that the other two behind him are talking about him.” See more work here.

“My son has Autism and regularly has sensory overload. To help with this, we take walks somewhere quiet,” Banton writes of this image, which was taken on one of this walks. “Here, he can get away from it all. Its just the warmth and a nice breeze in his face and the feel of the wheat as he slides his hand over it. He calms down, relaxes and is able to exchange communication again.” See more work here.
