Hello Everybody! Welcome to the Picture of the Day!

This is a game where we can practice our Spanish and English, but still have fun at the same time!

The rules are very simple and remain more or less exactly as RelaxingCup designed them.

  • Post your comments/titles/captions to this picture (both in Spanish and English) and vote for the responses you like. The best answer will be chosen tomorrow on the basis of the greatest number of votes as well as the language accuracy.

  • Pon tu comentario/ título/ pie de foto a esta imagen (ambos en español y inglés) y vota por las respuestas que te gusten. La mejor respuesta será seleccionada mañana, tanto por la cantidad de votos como por la corrección en el uso del idioma.

  • Please, give everyone a chance and only post one caption and no photos.

  • Por favor, deja que todos tengan una oportunidad y pon solo una respuesta, sin fotos.

Please help each other with your English/Spanish sentences. And above all, have fun!

This thread would benefit greatly from an official Spanish corrector. If you would like to help out in this way, please send me a PM. We have a wealth of native English speakers, but a severe shortage of those fluent in Spanish.

Here is the previous Picture of the Day: Dream Crusher...

And here is the Picture of the Day:

My new avatar is actually me playing at a peace vigil on what we call "Hiroshima Day" - August 6. - Jubilado, Jan 13, 2015
Oh, Hiroshima. That word will forever mark the start of humanity's ability to completely and utterly destroy each other... - 00ffada9, Jan 13, 2015

That statue is really life-like. Let's take a selfie with it......Or maybe not!

Esa estatua de veras parece real. Vamos a tomar un "selfie" con ella.....o ¡quizás no!

Algo como este me sucedió una vez en un museo de cera. Aparentemente es posible disfrazarse como una estatua y asustar a las personas.

Something like this happened to me one time in a wax museum. Apparently it is possible to get paid to masquerade as a statue and frighten people.

Ay, eso es la razón por qué el cartero no trae ningún correo en seis semanas...

Oh, so that's the reason why the postman hasn't delivered any mail in six weeks...

Remember in English it's "cannot" one word. - Jubilado, Jan 13, 2015
Both "cannot" and "can not" are acceptable, though "cannot" is seen more frequently and is less ambiguous. - AnnRon, Jan 13, 2015
