Photo of the Week: True or false: Beach days are the best days. Photo by Local Guide Antoine Durand.
Follow us on Google+, Facebook and twitter for more great photography from Local Guides.
How do we select the Photo of the Week?
We select the Local Guides Photo of the Week based on a variety of criteria; Local Guides do not "submit" or apply somewhere specifically to be featured. The photos we select are taken by actual Local Guides around the world and shared to a listed place on Google Maps. Photos of the Week are always associated with a specific point of interest on Google Maps, but some are a bit more loosely interpreted and artistic (i.e. it can be a storefront but it doesn't always have to be). They also vary quite a bit in view counts.
With so many talented explorers and photographers (amateur + pro) in our program, we want to recognize the amazing photos Local Guides around the world are contributing to Google Maps. Photo of the Week is one way to showcase different parts of the world, perspectives from LGs, and the multitude of places you can share your experiences about on Google Maps. It's worth noting that we will begin featuring more Local Guides photos generally on our social media channels.
If you're interested in having a photo you've shared to Google Maps featured, keep sharing great photography and we'll tag you on our social channels if your photo is featured!

The photo is amazing! It definitely makes me want to go to a beach warm enough to be in the water even when the sun is setting.
Also, it is impressive that the photographer managed to get that angle over the beach- goers.

We are approaching the sun bath season, and this is a really good photo of what is desiderable: friendship, sea, sun, fun.
